I stopped by Unlimited Motorsports on the way home yesterday and talked to Jody Patterson, the owner. He said that he can do it same-day, assuming nothing else is wrong with the forks.
The price difference between me removing the forks and bringing them in or him doing it is $65. That seems well worth it for me!

He has bushings and seals on order already and I will have it taken care of next week sometime.

I did ask about having them re-sprung and based on a weight of 210lbs, the stock springs are perfect. He said if I drop more weight (10-15 lbs) that I may want to come in and have it changed.
