Hi people, decided to give my pivot bearings a bit of TLC and I've come to a stop in the road.... My main pivot seems to be stuck and no matter what I've tried I can't see. To free it. Any help please?

Did you take the bump stop bolt out?

And the blue bit is stuck?
Took the Allen bolt out that holds it together?
Next get a flat ended drift, and then a dead blow hammer (not a normal hammer) and put drift into the inside (on lip of opposite part) and hit very very firmly.
Chances are the bearings are rusted to everything.

Blue pivots moving freely. Not taken the Ti Allen bolt out. Will give that a try didn't want to cause any damage using any force. Thanks for the help, much appreciated
