So..... i was rebuilding my 40 tonight, nothing like the last min, and i found out my fork is hosed. Anyone know if the fox guys will be down here and not bromont. Not likely i know. Anyone have a spare fork they can let me borrow, rent, or i can buy from them?

Thanks,

What specifically is wrong with your fork? Those things are extremely serviceable.

Find a shop (that's a Fox dealer and has parts) in the Sugarbush area, or somewhere along your way and you should be able to rebuild it. They aren't really all that complex. If it's your cartridge, that's rebuild-able too. The Fox service rep came into my shop a while ago and showed me how to rebuild the entire Fox line, and the 40's are actually pretty simple. Fox's website has extremely detailed instructions on how to service 40's and rebuild the cartridge.
