What weight oil do you refill the fork with? It would seem to me that the stock 7.5 would be too thin.

Yes, but are the holes you drill not bigger than the holes that were there? If you make the holes bigger that you would need thicker oil to compensate. Yes thicker oil will slow things down, thats the point...

well if your fork is gone rigid, and you don't have a warranty, this would be an excellent last ditch effort.

True, true.

Are there any lowers that you can swap around for the DJ-line? Cuz I'm doing this to my DJ-2 if it gets rejected, and I only have 20mm wheels!

Yeah, but it might get rejected, because I brought it in for my school club to screw around with it.

I talked to them about the situation, and that I brought it to the school after like 3 months after it froze.
