How do you remove a castor?
The castor is the 2 section type in which section 1 is a holding socket or bush (anchored/pushed into the chair frame ) and section 2 is the wheel unit which is pushed in to the holding socket & click- locks into place.

is the style.
Am guessing there is a trick to releasing the wheel unit, but I cannot see it.
TIA for any pointers
Pull on the wheel unit sharply? And/or insert a lever between the wheel and the socket if possible. That's always worked for me in the past.

What you need is some sort of bifurcated wedge arrangement to go between the fixed bush and the wheel "unit". Think in terms of the claw bit of a claw hammer, only a tad bigger.
Just tap it in and the wheelie bit'll fly out!
Google "balljoint fork" - is that what you mean?
