This takes strong hands to reinstall. The inner cylinder must be pushed down, compressing the rodspring slightly and displacing a little bit of excess oil in the top of the fork tube, and then tightened. I like topush the cap down, and turn it counterclockwise until I feel the threads line up, before reversing direction and tighteningthe inner cylinder into place. The inner cylinder threads are fine, so take care not to strip them. Also, I puta touch of silicone grease on the ring at the top of the inner cylinder tube to help it ease into place - these white ringscan supposedly not be purchased individually, so it pays to take care re-installing this cylinder.
