How to disassemble my MX Comp ETA?

[David]

So I want to service my 2005 MX Comp ETA. The manual lists service
intervals etc., but says to have it done by an authorized service
center.

Other forks I've had were pretty easy to disassemble (RS, Manitou, and
an old Z1). No instructions required. How would I service this fork
myself? Would I need an oil seal tool, or any other special tools?

Thanks,
David

Thanks Slack!

There seems like a lot of special tools involved. I'm tempted to have
this one done by pros.

I've done two of them.

The first one's a queen ***** bco incomplete/missing instructions
on critical points.

The second one went fairly easily - maybe an hour's work.

But if I could live without the fork for whatever the turnaround
time is, I think I'd at least consider sending the third
iteration to the pros - depending on my cost for the replacement
seals, which I recall as fairly hefty compared to the pros' price
for the whole job.
