|   1997 Judy XC Parts | EagerBeaver
Oct 21, 2001 8:12 AM | | The top tube assembly on each side of this shock has a 22mm plastic hex nut (see photo). After removing these many times the corners are gone so I can't get them off this time without destroying them. Anyone know if these can be ordered and if so how much they would cost? IMHO, plastic nuts seem like a really bad idea.
Thanks |

Oct 21, 2001 5:24 PM | | RockShox continued to use those cheap plastic top-caps since '97, ignoring customer compaints and requests over the years to change them to Aluminum. The garbage top-caps are still used today, but if you've stripped them (like most other Judy owners) you can order another set from RochShox through your LBS for about $15. Aftermarket replacement Aluminum top-caps are/were available at one time for around $50, which is insane. Try fid somebody who has an old Judy lying around who might give/sell you the parts. I'd give you mine, but they're also trashed.
Good luck! |

Oct 22, 2001 3:21 AM | | I can't tell by the photo, but will a deep-well six point socket fit over the adjuster knob? If so, you may be able to get it out and back in. If the socket won't fit over the adjuster knob, can it be easily removed to make clearance?
I know this doesn't answer your question about where to get a replacement, but hopefully, you'll at least be able to service the fork until you find some.
