Hi Grant
I don't think you will find anyone in the UK to rebuild them for you but all the spares and manuals are available from Dr Marzocchi here :

Hope this helps

Looks like a spring conversion may be a possibility?

Re:

Have you pumped then up ;-)

Oil seal is a standard metric size so you can buy them R23 style are needed.
Bushings are also metric, but I've not found anywhere with 26mm ID bushings, they seem to skip that size.

Thanks for all the help, I have tried to pump them up but to no joy, there is a bit oil around the top of the seal, so thinking the oil seals are gone
