If it's post 2006 then it can take a modern damper, so all would not be lost if you pulled it apart and knackered it. If I were you I'd get the castle tool, remove the damper then post it to
88+ when the time comes. The telescope will be fine.
Give me a shout if you have any questions.
Getting my 2.0 Lefty repaired was relatively straight forward although TF weren't exactly shit-hot. It was the criminally hamfisted re-installation that caused the agony. I was more referring to this thread that gives you an idea of some of the complications involved with tear down and reassembly.
