: happy bike passed MOT
wedge a flat blade screwdriver into the gap on the bottom of the fork leg tap in gently one each side should make it easier to slide in the spindle

: Has change happened...must of missed it!
When its refitted make sure you only tighten the mounting bolts to the correct torque!..........it may well be oval from overtightening...thats why its difficuly to fit?

that was hard
wiggling witha long handle did the trick though
what torque for the clamp and the spindle bolts please?
