1st time replacing seals on a 2000 Marzocchi Z5 Flylight AirHalfnuts
Feb 23, 2002 8:23 AM
My Z-5 is leaking oil pretty bad after two fairly hard seasons. I like to do my own maintainence and want to do the overhaul myself. I have the schematics/documentation on the forks but I'm not seeing a Part Number for the seal kit I'd need, nor can I find Marzocchi seal kits on line. Can anyone help me out here?

Also, this is my first time, any good advice? I notice Marzocchi has some special tools for removing and pressing in seals, are they necessary? Are they expensive? I'm pretty mechanically inclined (built a frame up, do all my own maintaince, etc.) so I don't mind learning but if it's more than worth it (i.e. expensive learning curve, tool cost, etc.) to just let the LBS do it, I can live w/ that. Did a search for this info on the board but didn't see anything, if there is, a link is fine. Thanks much in advance! Spring riding is almost here!
