DescriptionThe whole story▼

Preload tube 31/ 68, Öhlins part number 01460-55. An adjuster that turns without resistance has lost its detent; the setting is then guesswork.

Key Features

  • Dimension B 68 mm
  • Öhlins part number 01460-55
  • Dimension A 31 mm
  • Original Öhlins service part

What It Is

The published figures are 31 mm, 68 mm. Measure the old part against them before ordering. Hydraulic preload adjusters are sealed and pressurised; they are replaced as a unit. The preload tube transfers the spring load to the adjuster and sets the installed length. Detent balls and springs are separate parts because they wear before the housing does.

Original Öhlins Part

Suspension is one of the few areas where the original part is genuinely the cheaper decision. Öhlins publishes dimensions for its service parts so a workshop can verify before it fits. If the unit is already apart, compare the published dimensions with the part in your hand. Öhlins parts are unit-specific: a close dimension is not a substitute.

Identifying the Right Part

Order under 01460-55. Where several sizes share a description, only the number separates them. Öhlins states dimension a 31 mm, dimension b 68 mm for this number, and those figures are the deciding ones. Click adjusters work through a needle in a seat; the detent spring gives the clicks their feel. Öhlins offers several lengths so the same body can serve different springs.

Fitting and Setup Service

Öhlins recommends that its units are serviced by an authorised centre. We are one: rebuild, revalve and setup all happen in our own workshop.
