Hey guys and gals, I am trying to remove my trees from bike. There is a nut on top to undo, first time removing trees. I need them off upper and lower for my springer to mount up, any help greatly appreciated. I can take picture if needed. :D

Just unscrew the Nut & the top Tree should pull off.Might be another Nut, undo that & the bottom Tree will fall out of the Neck.You'll have a Washer or 2,Dust Caps & Bearings top & bottom,(mine are Ball Bearings so be carefull when taking it apart).the Races will be press fit in the neck.Go through the Neck with a long Punch & tap the bottom of the Race if you need to remove them.
