After doing one side the brute force way, I discovered that a 4' 2x4 used as a lever worked wonders. It also makes it super easy to get the fork bolt back in during reassembly.

try having four stuck...16 hours on freeing bolts...impossible to remove, drilling through each hole. yeah i think i got it the worst. haha

And flip, i did what mxs did and left the fork there and just wiggled it out.

lol no you guys i do want your help, but i literally stripped two sockets and broke a socket wrench from pulling too hard, and no air tools would work either, the only bolts that gave me problems were the fork bolts, so those are the ones that i gave up on lol i guess i am kinda lazy though, but these guys at the shop i'm tight with will use torches and do it for REAL cheap, and then just give me my alignment while i'm there.

For those rusty old bolts, I used the hydraulic jack's handle (3 foot long hollow pipe) and I put it over the wrench. As long as you do it slowly, very slowly, you won't break a bolt off.

I hate rust.
