1974 Honda CB550K · Fork Tools Buying guide
A fork’s diameter and its cap-wrench size are different measurements. The driver and wrench have their own stated applications, and neither tool description lists replacement seals, circlips or caps as supplied parts.
The driver description names a split carbon-steel design and 35 or 36 mm use on conventional or inverted forks. Its CB550K application is specifically listed under 35 mm forks. Compare the actual front end and use appropriate service information for the fitted assembly.
The 24 mm wrench names stock CB550K caps. A separately listed 35 mm wrench describes another engagement size, not proof that stock caps require it. Compare any replacement cap’s size before ordering, and keep cap engagement distinct from the fork-tube diameter.
The listing includes 35 mm forks on the 1974–78 CB550K and describes a split carbon-steel tool. Confirm the front end currently fitted, since a model application does not identify the dimensions of every replacement fork.
The source describes a non-marring design for 24 mm caps. That is a design description rather than a guarantee of damage-free work in every condition. Compare the fitted cap and tool engagement before selecting the wrench.
They address different parts of a fork job. Choose the driver for its stated seal-service use and the wrench for the caps it engages. The listings do not define every step or tool needed for the fitted fork assembly.
