I'm having my fork lowers powder coated. So I took it all apart. I have 15k miles on the bike. My question is do I need to replace the fork seals and all the o rings per the service manual or is that written for the 50k service.

I know the 6mm bolts and crush washers have to be replaced. And I'm also gonna replace the quad ring seal.

Thanks

I did my fork seals but not the o-ring on the caps.... worth the few bucks over a potential leak.

NOTE.... when re-installing the seals use masking tape folded over the lip of fork tube to prevent damaging the seal... works great. even says so in the manual... hehehe.
