Reading between the lines..

Is this another set of 48mm Marzocchi PFP's that have eaten themselves from the inside out?

Glad to hear you managed to get them working again. Be very interested to hear how they hold up from now too. Mind giving a rough figure for what you had done?

most of the cost was machining for the new seals,which are a strange green color.? I'm heading to work now I'll dig up the invoice afterwards.but 380 USD was the price. I am glad i sent them in before it was to late.

I stand corrected. I've found the invoice. Oil change and clean were most costly. a lot of smaller costs which add up. and the hard anodize was very reasonable. Not sure about the cartridge seals.?
