Yeah, could defo be an option. Rock Shox forks seem to take a bit of a nose dive quality wise for a while after the og Judy era though. By the time they look like they are getting better they are disc only.
Most of the correct era Judys are needing too much work, elastomers, seals, repaint...
I'd really like an orange z1 and Marzocchis should be a bit more reliable I think being coil sprung. Again though, if they have disc tabs then they are generally missing the rim brake posts.
I've bought a DMR Sidekick fork which I'll need to mod slightly to mount a canti hanger on as I've decided to go for them over Vs. I have an LX canti and a nice Dia Compe 988 in the spares box. It might also have too short a steerer but I can probably sort that out.
Going to keep looking for a decent, suitable sus fork but the DMR one will let me get it rolling.
