Always good to see fresh ideas. Many thanks for sharing that.

From way back I had a seal puller and an old school automotive drum brake adjusting tool. Combining these as shown allowed a very controlled application of force to the back of the pin. Without the brake tool (or similar) backing up the seal puller, the fulcrum was in the wrong place and I broke the hardened tip of the puller.

Just got to the point of dismantling the front forks and came across the pin removal problem. I designed and made a tool to push them from the inside. It worked a treat :-)
I have tried to upload a picture but get informed

Any ideas? JPG file of 353k

You have to make the photo public.

Every day is an education! It should now be public.

As it should be!
Nice tool. Your other photos are very good as well. Quite a project you have on your hands.
