The bottom yoke on mine didn't have clear coat like the top and wasn't as tough to strip.
If I remember correctly, I used the thumb and paper method on it.
My powdercoat guy has a bucket of stripper, & I had him do the top.
That one was tough, and came out slightly pitted, so there was still some of that t&p stuff involved.
I've been wondering lately how a die grinder & scotchbrite would've done.
The really gnarly part is the fork legs.
There's a lot of sand cast & rough machining in evidence there.
It really shows up once the coating is stripped.
