it might be different for you because you are in the United States... but when i sent it to zocchi in vancouver BC i didn't send them any billing info...

however, i did register my fork online so mabey that had something to do with it

now when you warentee your fork for creaking, marzocchi is installing the nickel plated stanctions... i think they are doing this because when you plate something, you are adding a small layer of material onto the stanction (making a tighter fit)... the whole reason your forks creak is because of the fit between the bushings and the stanctionand stanction to crown...

after my second warentee, marzocchi gave me 2010 nickel stanctions and 2010 internals like bushings, springs, dust seals and oil... no problems with it thus far and i have tried very hard to make these forks creak... even with doing endos there have been absolutely no sounds

as far as i know... its the only rc3 with nickel stanctions in london... (which is sic!!!)
