Quick question. I bought a pair of used Sonic Springs. They came with spacers, but not washers. Does anyone know for sure if there would there be a problem re-using the stock washers? Should I go through the effort of getting new washers from Rich (or the hardware store)?

Any help would be appreciated. I'd like to do the work this weekend, so knowing that I can reuse the stock washers or knowing the proper size to get them from a hardware store would be great. I'm just afraid they are custom sized.

I believe everyone I have ever talked to has re-used the stock washers with no issues whatsoever.

Bill,

The important thing is to have a washer on each end of the PVC spacer. The stock washers are fine, and are what you should use between the spacer and the fork cap. If you have the first gen style preload cap you have to use the stock solid washer. For in between the spring and spacer, any washer with an OD in the 30-35mm range is fine.
