My forks have started to make a sucking sound on rebound. I assume that the seals have started to leak a bit. There is no oil on the stanchions though.
I expect that they need new seals and oil. Trouble is, I am having trouble trying to locate the correct service kit as I do not know the exact model fork. They are I believe Fox F29 RL as that is what is marked on them.
Can anyone help me to find the correct service kit? Thanks.

Have you tried to contact the likes of TF Tuned or RSF Suspension to see if they have a kit.

A mate put me on to Southcoast Suspension. He did a full service for me for £90 with free return postage. They are superb now. Just needed a bit of trial and error to set the correct sag height.
