Much to JonKranked's enjoyment I purchased a used fox F29 float fork...it was recently rebuilt and is in great shape, but it seems to have the ultra common creak from the crown. I'm probably SOL on having it warrantied (will call anyways) but has anybody had any success with fixing it via loctite?

I'm fairly confident that that's what it is. I can turn the fork sideways and it decreases, plus it remained when I tightened and adjusted the headset. Same frame/brake/wheel with a new fork. I've got to give a ride to really see what's up, but yeah.

I'm on my 2nd Float 36 RC2. Will likely be on a third soon. Great fork, but pret-ty annoying. I thought it was my cables and housing clicking together as I rode, but nay.

I'm choosing to try and not let it bother me too much. The fork still feels fine... but .... fack....
