[QUOTE="Oldjeep, post: 1450308, member: 93148"] If you already drained the oil out - no real reason to remove them from the bike. I assume you already removed the caps so that you can fill. Remove the springs from the cartridges and then you can get whatever tool you decide to use to hold the top of the cartridge (socket welded to a piece of pipe is my method) Then you can get the bottom bolts back in. The oil level is set with the springs out, so you need to remove them anyways. Then using your oil level tool - I use an adjustable suction tool that sucks out the excess. Use it in the middle of the side so that you are accounting for the angle the oil will be sitting at with the forks on the bike. [/QUOTE]
