The easiest way I've found to get the caps back on, is to unscrew the caps (with no spring pressure applied) and mark where the fine threats disengage ,both the cap and the tube. replace the spring and compress the cap turning it ccw slightly, then cw to align the marks and start the threads. (don't mix the caps after marking -a dot with a fine tip marker works for me).

Be nice to them and they won't threaten you. Huh

I've used that technique of looking at where the start threads line up before, and it's a winner.. but I was so frustrated I managed to forget it. Thanks!!

And, since we all know how wonderful the clear is on the sliders, and that the only way to clean them up and fix it is off the bike, I'm doing that, too.
I went to the store that sells to body shops and bought two rattle cans of Two Stage clear. It's got a cartridge in the base of the can to activate the paint. It is good for over thirty hours after you push the button.
Snot cheap, at all.. two cans were Fiftee Bud, and change.. Hopefully I can take one back.

Awwrite, so I sukk at painting, but I managed a passable job. Got both sliders, lower triple clamp, signal mounts, and a test patch on the truck hood. One can.
Absolutely couldn't get the caps on the tubes even after I marked where the threads lined up...
So, I looped a rope through the caliper mount and hung my heel in it and pulled the slider down some. Win!
A 5/8 ths deep 1/2" chrome socket in the axle hole and a foot pushing down and another Win...
