Question F1 stock front suspension tuning

Hi all ,, ive got a lot of binding in the front suspension ,,im using the stock springs and have got the stainless king pins in ,also the Knuckles are the stock ones ,,i have tried shimming with small paper inside the spring but not much effect ,, it seems to bind the springs onto the knuckle hole where the spring sits in when i depress the suspension,id like the front suspension to be very smooth ,, any ideas would be great ,, Thanks

Use graphite powder (is usually sold to "grease" weapons, and specially keylocks) to impregnate the king ping, and inside the knuckles, then insert the king ping and give it play so that the graphite sticks to them. It will go silk smooth, and won't attract dust. You gan get also get the graphite from a pencil tip...
