Help with identifying this Marzocchi fork pls?

[sparkybhp]

Hi, I’ve recently bought and am refurbishing a 24 seven DJ bike. These forks came with it and seem to be in pretty good condition - just need a service/new seals hopefully..
Problem is, I’m not sure what they are.. Dirt Jam, Dirt Jumper 1/2/3.. I’ve googled but can’t find anything that matches exactly. The stanchions are black and the fork caps are both unscrewable valve covers (if that makes sense). There’s a spring and spacer as well as air in the left leg but looks like just air in the right one.
Anyone recognise them? They’re dated 2003 and for 24” wheels..

You need to talk to DrMarzocchi or @kraeMit as he’s know around here

Look like marathon sl with the legs sprayed black.

Thanks, not sure that they are - the fork bridge looks different and mine don’t have posts for v brakes.

I just put Marzocchi 2003 into google and nearest I can see are 2003 Free Rides / 2004 Dirt Jumper which look to be similar forks

Thanks for the help, I’ve ordered a seal kit from mountainbikewarehouse.co.uk that fits most 32mm marzocchi forks 2003 upwards - hope they’ll do the job. £25 delivered.. not too bad.

That looks like a EXR pro. I don’t know why they call pro because it was a simple fork. That model looks later than mine because the upper bridge.

These are likely not DJs as back in 2004 those models typically got chromed steel stanchions to help them survive botched landings (I got one on my Diamindback hardtail). The black coating was a Z-series thing iirc, as well as the T-series (like the 2004 Drop-off Triple currently on my Norco Rampage). Being these are long-travel 2003/2004 model forks with black stanchions and no rim brake mounts I'd be going with a lower-spec Z-series, essentially a Dirt Jumper but a bit lighter cause of the stanchions. Personally some of my most fave forks ever, simple and strong and reliable yet extremely smooth when set up with right oils and such. Was looking for one for my X-rated SS bike, currently waiting on a Bomber 44 to arrive in the mail instead
