Cheers for the offer matey,

When removing the inner fork, the inner bush was slipping under the outer bush locking everything in place....

Me, Pete and Nick had a fork lift holing down a work bench with the outer sleeve held in place and a roof crane that lifts 8T easy trying to pull the fukkas apart.
It didnt work so i weighed up what i have in spares and realised i have 2 outer sleeves in the garage and told pete to "cut the bitch"
He winced, shed a tear at cutting into a £400 bit of metal and got the angle grinder on it.

Thank god i had 2 sets of full forks in the garage.....

I got very frustrated with a brake caliper once...................many years ago.
It just would not come apart I took a sledgehammer to it and smashed it to a pulp.

Felt good for about 10 seconds.......................I had a bike but no brakessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss LOL

I have the photo somewhere
