[apart from the above the shallow ones make for great dampers on a basketball ring when screwed to the outside wall of the house]
Back to the forks
Aside from needing about 12 per leg they won’t stack all the well being conical at one end - and finally the diameter of the hole in them is to small and doesn’t allow them to move up and down the rod, you’d end up with a different type of Stiction like I have stopping the fork stroke returning fully
Day off today so surgery is planned
You can get barrel ones as well as conical they’ll stack fine and I’d wager probably work as well as the suspension fork parts ones (which I found far too hard).

Carl.
I’ve only seen conical shaped truck rubbers .... but Carlos is right and here they are in glorious technicolour
Bigger iron than the cheap sh1t ones on eBay made from god knows what and probably only good for mounting basket ball rings and the odd Girvin Flexstem
