Default Front Suspension (rockshox Psylo)

I currently own two pairs of 2003 Rockshox psylo XC's I wish to swap the upper legs from one fork to the other. I do not have a manual and I have been trying all day to download from the rockshox. website....can anyone tell me what I need to take them apart?

All you need to do is remove the two bottom bolts. Unscrew them 5 turns only and tap them firmly with a rubber mallet until the retaining rods come loose. The just pull the uppers away and slide them into the other legs. Keep in mind that it will be a messy operation because once you remove the legs the oil will pour out. Once you slide them back together you will need to pour new oil into each leg through the bolt holes and then install the bolts back on. I can't remember the correct amount of oil. I would strongly recomend you try to get the service guide before you do it though. Its very simple to do but if you don't know what your doing you will make your life a living hell and your fork will not perform well.
