    Just use the wheels you have got, find some tyres with thickish/strong side walls and look up ghetto tubeless on youtube. One tip I would give you, actually two would be inflate the tyres on the rim using an inner tube over night to get it the right shape and also google tyre bong and make one of those if your track pump doesn’t inflate. I find that about 90ml of stans sealant is best.

    Good luck, it can go either way, dead easy or right ball ache

    Thanks again guys, i am thinking it might be an oil problem as I only put 5wt oil in the lowers on spring side. we will see, i'll give it a try

    ok thanks guys I will try winding it down then take the lowers off again.

    unfortunately i don't have a diagram to work from, checked the SRAM website again and they don't have diagrams just air uturn service manual with pics, doh!

    Thanks again

    Stuff I have tried so far

    Checking for play in headset
    Any loose bolts, lowers or 24mm tops on both damping and spring side
    No fork oil leaking

    All works fine except for this little bit of play indirection of travel

    Think I am going to ring SRAM and try to get a decent drawing and of course when I get time take the lowers off and have a look

    I am starting to think that it night be a damper problem?

    There are some good u tube vids from fox for servicing thier standard air cans might be worth a look. maybe just taco the wiper seal (bend into pringles type shapeand try to fit it into the narrow bit first?
