If anyone has some experience with these forks , could you please PM me. I have some issues to try and resolve, but not looking good for me to make next weekend.

Thanks.

what is the issue ??? ??? ??? it would help to know....

On the compression side I have 2 springs with a spacer between them, lower spring is shorter. I broke that lower spring....which isn't shown on any of the Marzocchi fork parts diagrams that I have come across.....

So I am a bit confused on what spring I will need......There isn't a lot of good info on these forks online, and as I understand it, parts are not being made anymore

I would start here.....  http://www.trialspartsusa.com/index.html they are called Rising Sun Imports.....I would call and talk to them. They are the main importer of all Gas Gas parts in the USA. The website has a lot of tech info also.  http://www.lewisportusa.com/ is also a big parts supplier and may have what you need.

Thanks for the info. I have an email into Adrian at Lewisport, but probably wont hear anything until Monday and just wanted to see if anyone had any insight.

Rising Sun is on the Ill , Ind. boarder and can get the parts out to you very fast if they have them. They are in the eastern time zone......if you call them Tues. morning and they have them, they will ship the same day. I go thru them for all he parts for my Gas Gas.  good luck hope this helps.

did u buy the bike used? previous owner may have broke the spring and put the washer in there

  Id  ride  even if  a spring is broke  if you cant find new one  just shim it up  and go .Did bike ride badly  ,or were you just doing seal change and notice it??

I did get everything sorted out, parts are on the way....supposed to be here Thursday so I am trying to carve some time out Thursday night..... or it will be more last minute on Friday night....

Noel- It happened at Ottawa event, broken spring ends "threaded" together so I ended up with about 3/4" -1" gap from the top of the spring spacer to the fork cap.... which clunked annoyingly every time you lifted the front wheel and set it down....Not to mention it became very soft up front.

I will get there this weekend one way or another, I have an offer to borrow a bike also if I run into any problems.

  Good  hate  to have you  miss the ride .plan on  a good one.  cheers

glad to hear that you were able to get the parts.  ;D good luck on assembly...... hope you can get it together.
