How-to Change Springs / Spring Preload on 2024 WP XACT Closed Cartridge Forks 

Very informative,made it look easy. Think I will order a set.

excellent video, thanks!

Great video

Did this today. Piece of cake. One tip and a couple of questions/observations that have me thinking. First the suggestion if you are looking for a way to grip the fork to wrench the bolts, I used some rubbery shelf liner and held between my thighs and had a perfect grip to torque them off. Also some observations. I have been using air forks for so long I never noticed you can hear the fluid sloshing around and also I was a little surprised you can also hear the forks sliding in the tubes. Thought maybe it was just my replaced spring into, but noticed the oem one did the same. I guess springs make noises? :)

Thank you for the video! Is there a need to try to expel any oil left within the cartridge? For example, do you need to pump the cartridge when the spring is off in order to get all of the oil out?

Lowering forks 20mm WP XACT 48mm closed cartridge on a 2024 Husky TE300. Can you show what it takes to get the space kit in. It has 2 components and this video would cover one of them, but getting the space on the piston rod is what I need to learn. Any videos or links would be helpful.

A gentleman at a local suspension shop just told me that the 385 ml of oil was too much and that the forks would never fully compress. He recommends starting at 300 and moving up from there. I haven't been able to find any other opinions on this change.

To be clear. Can you remove a few millimeters of preload by pulling a spacer on a stock spring and that is ok? Thanks!

Hello! Thanks for the great video. If you need to go in and replace the spring or preload spacer on a new fork (low hours), can you reuse the oil?

If i want to set spring preload will i have to put new oil to closed cartridge too? Or only in outer chamber? And closed cartridge stay filled? Thanks

i have a 2024 xcw150 absolutley the worst suspension of any bike i own. despite being valved and sprung for weight and ability ( which made them a lot better) they still suck. im considering a kyb adaptation or maybe the 6500 series cartridge, but i have little faith in WP.
