Bob and Mark put a Dyna WideGlide on the table lift to show you how to assemble an HHI’s lower slider, fork tube and six-degree trees with hidden fork stops. They also teach you to use your service manual’s specifications to learn how to torque the parts after they assembled. Finally, be sure to apply anti-seize when necessary and use Spectro Heavy-Duty Fork Oil to fill the fork assembly. We produced a separate multi-hour video class on rebuilding a Springer Front End here.
