i just took mine out with a rubber mallet(you could use a regular hammer, but i didnt wanna bother the neighbors, its 11 at night) and hit a 15" crecent(adjustable) wrench after putting it on the steerer tube where its not stuck on there but wont slide over the headsets, oh yea, i used a wall mounted vice to hold the bike and used the vice to reinstall them in my other frame
