'12 shock removal

[nato]

I am planning to go to a .46 fork spring setup. Do I have to take the forks out to swap them out?

yep, though really easy, you just need a bucket, a socket set/torque wrench and a measuring jug and a vice with either soft jaws or some cardboard to protect the fork , the manual for marzocchi 48s is on the sight somewhere, the gas gas manual has spring change info but its for the open chamber 45/48s.

it wouldn't take you an hour including removing/replacing forks from bike.if you need help let me know.

Simmo off the top of your head what are the dimensions of the springs in the CC Marz 48's?

Been told the springs out of 48mm Sachs, which are also for 48mm KYB will fit.

Dimensions of the Sachs/KYB spring is 44 x 460mm.

Where can I find the tightening torques for linkage? Been meaning to pull my linkage apart and re grease everything.

I'll go measure, I know the Sachs 48 were kyb 48 so I'm thinking they'll all cross over, the replacement springs I bought for the Sachs were longer like you've noted from memory, the marz48 stock were 5mm longer than the replacements I got from two wheels. The Sachs stuff fits in Marz 50, and Showa 49/47 as well, i Think. Varing lengths of course.
