    I thought the rockers, for that era fork, would not have the raised zerk boss. Otherwise, nice fork for someone.

          it doesn't matter what rockers are on it(late rockers were obvious). thats minor. looks like a later front leg to me, can't really see the hump if there is one. and no casting pics(ok ben). if casting #'s are good and no hump, zerks inside, 37 early 38.. easy fix for a prewar setup.

            So the '38-'40 fork has the hump above the numbers on the spring leg? thanks, Bob

              It's only minor if you already have a set of early rockers. And that reminds me; I need an early right side rocker if anyone has one lying about.

                It has the later steering damper, so it's not correct for '38.
