Axle clamps are machined so the axle clamps without pinching the fork out of alignment. Fork parts are specific to the fork, not to the motorcycle it happens to be fitted to. Inner tubes carry a low-friction coating; once it is through, the seals wear quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGenuine Service Part\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuspension is one of the few areas where the original part is genuinely the cheaper decision. Öhlins lists this part under its own number in the service catalogue so a workshop can order exactly what it needs. The Öhlins exploded view names the number for each position; we can look it up if you do not have it. Öhlins numbers do not follow a logic you can guess — always read them from the documentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIdentifying the Right Part\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe reliable route is the exploded drawing: find the position, read the number, order it — 01438-08 in this case. The published dimensions are dimension a 31 mm, dimension b 43.5 mm — measure the old part against them if you are unsure. Bushings in the fork carry the side load; play there shows up as knocking under braking. A fork tube that has been bent is scrap: straightening changes the wall and it bends again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and Setup Service\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFitting service parts means opening a pressurised unit. As an authorised Öhlins service centre we do that here, with the right tools and a dyno check afterwards — just ask.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eBrand:\u003c\/em\u003e Öhlins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/em\u003e 01438-08\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCategory:\u003c\/em\u003e Fork Parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eDimension A:\u003c\/em\u003e 31 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eDimension B:\u003c\/em\u003e 43.5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/em\u003e Sweden\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Öhlins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53649091494154,"sku":"01438-08","price":20.69,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/01438-08_598f2d3b-2ba8-4bb9-bf39-9b7a3b49c847.png?v=1788873718","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-ht\/products\/ohlins-guide-ring-front-fork-31-43-5-01438-08","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
