I Ride: Wheelies | Tripple tree press?
So I am swapping the front end on my F4I. and I want to repaint my triple trees and I heard I need to have the main stem pressed. Anyone know where I can get this done? Also I know how to remove the top bearing, but not the bottom, any tips with that? |

Use a chisel and sand filled mallet for the bottom bearing, it should come off relatively easy. Any machine shop with a hydraulic press can help, but most won't understand what your asking over the phone. Just take it to a shop or two and ask if they can press it out, show it to them personally. Most will let you watch them do it, which is fun... James |
