Dirt Devil Rear Axle Fork A...

Product details
Royal's metal upright line uses a ratcheting five-position system for nozzle height, and this rear axle fork assembly, part 2670007000, is what makes that ratchet work.
This listing covers the axle and fork together, built for the incremental ratcheting style of height adjustment these machines use. Getting nozzle height right changes how the machine performs: set too high, carpet pile never fully clears the brush roll, and set too low, the nozzle drags and the motor works harder than it needs to on bare floors. When the fork assembly wears internally, the ratchet either stops holding a chosen position or skips between settings on its own, and the adjustment starts to feel loose or spongy rather than snapping cleanly between clicks.

These metal-body Royal machines are built to stay in service for years, and a sound fork assembly is what keeps that height adjustment reliable rather than a source of frustration. Match your exact model number against the list above before ordering, since only the metal-body models named there are covered. Before replacing the assembly, work the height lever through its full travel by hand with the machine unplugged, since a setting that only slips once weight is on the machine but holds fine while it is tipped back can sometimes point to a worn wheel or bent nozzle housing rather than the ratchet itself. Confirming which part is actually loose first saves an unnecessary swap.
