DRZ 400 front forks

[sAsLEX]

Putting the DRZ on to the ute in the weekend noticed some fork oil leaking out of the bottom of the boot.

My guess is the seals have gone and need replacing.


How easy is this job, and do I need the two special tools it talks about in my service manual or can it be done without them?

Or just take it to the shop?

Take it to a GOOD shop and just work extra hours to help pay for it. Thats very often a better mentality than DIY.
