I have just taken to bits a set of Chili suspension forks. It seems
to me that it would be easy to make new stanchions, the chrome tubes
at the top , for them. The construction of these and lot of other
forks is the stanchions have a long bolt way down inside them that you
can reach with an extention bar on your socket rachet. It is 5mm
allen on these. There is a piece of rubber in the sliders with a
threaded part in side it. So all you would need is longer tubes with
a washer SECURELY welded on to it to make your new stanchions. You
wouldnt really have to chrome it as for instance old BSA motorbikes
didnt have chrome on some of there forks.
