I needed a new set of fork seals, and I somehow ended up ordering a set of wiper seals instead of oil seals.

That's what I get for ringing the order up on two seperate computers and dogging between them before actually completing the transaction.

Dammit, I looked at the product through the packaging and thought "wait, those are dust wipers, not fork seals", and hessitated to open the package. Then I turned it around and read "fork seal replacement kit" printed on the back, and a diagram of a set of oil seals and DUST seals being slid over a fork, and thought "oh, awesome! They included a set of dust wipers with the oil seals!"

Cut the package open and realized "oh wait... no they didn't". GRRRRRRRRR! I MIGHT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SEND THEM BACK AND GET MY ORDER CHANGED TOO!!!!!!!!!!

Oh well. I would have needed new dust seals down the road anyway, as mine are destroyed, but man. I'm pissed. I could have held out on ordering a new set for well... Forever.

Gotta call up Glenn's Cycle and give Glenn the dimensions of the seals I need to tommorow. Hopefully he'll have some in stock.

So now i've got a set of fork oil and seal savers staring me down, but I can't actually change my seals...
