dont use the grey ducktape!!! it got super stuck and i only got about 1/4 of the reinforcment in my fork ended up hacksawing the rest so now just my forks threads have reinforcement haha.
I jus tthought of something....I dnot know why I didnt think of this before because its what I do ....put the end of the fork in a vice and bend it just a little bit! and the pipe will go in snug with some hammering make sure you dont bend it to much it will completely kill it
