Have any of you replaced the bushings on your forks? Rock shox pike 426 needing done here.
Was reading the SRAM tech manual online and it doesnt seem that difficult a job at all, but the specialist tools aren't readily available on the net as far as I can see.

Anyone know a good source for the bushing pullers and the punch bit to put the new ones in?

I would rather have a go at it myself, even if buying all the bits totals as much as sending the forks off to TFT. There's a couple of pairs of Rockshox in the family fleet so the tools would definitely be getting a good bit of use over time

I hope you really know what you're doing.....

I think there's a reason the removal tools aren't readily available.

I would just send them to TFTuned if i were you.
