the original fork has been misbehaving since i got the bike. it has no damping effect and the lockout doesn't work.
a friend of mine also has a fatty and it is having some issues, so we decided to take them apart and give them a good service.
we don't own a park tool spa-1, so he threw some steel into the milling machine and made a tool to open the top caps.
since mine is some obscure, shortened version of the regular fatty, the castle tool will not work - we need to come up with something that has the castle interface at the bottom and some key slots for two different size adapters to use it in both forks.
