Have a pair of XCT forks that came on a Giant ATC I got from a friend. I want to paint them black so want to dismantle them. But I can’t get the sleeves out, anyone know how they come out?

I have tried most of the tutorials I have found but they don’t work on mine.

Most sleeves seem to have 1 hole in the side but mine have 4 all the way around them.

I have included a few photos of other parts to maybe try and identify model of forks

    Just buy a set of black forks from eBay and save yourself a load of hassle. Brand new they are only about £60 and anything from £15 up for second hand.
