Fork Removal????

How do I get the fork tubes out, so I can put in my delrin bushings?!?!

I took off the tripple clamp & front wheel & brake. I removed the fork seals but it seems like it's just stuck. I pulled down on the fork leg, but it just doesn't come out. Please help. I'm ready to throw this fiddy against a wall

Behind the black rubber bottom fork seals there is a snap ring that holds the legs from slipping out. Remove the snap ring and the bolt at the top and they slide right out.

Re: Fork Removal????

No prob if you dont know what to do next you have to remove the spring and aluminum end that holds it to the fork leg. The aluminum end has a pin going through it, punch that out and it'll allow it to slide it off the leg.
