fork exchange

[DeanR]

Any problem with replacing one fork on an 80 Special with one from an 81 Special? Thought I remembered reading somewhere that there might be a slight difference between them but part number looks the same? I nuts'd up the drain screw. After trying a reverse drill bit, an easy out, and a gadget from Sears to get the broken scew out, there's a a big hole with just enough screw remaining to still hold oil for the time being.

Dean,

Why don't you just tap it to the next size?
