are the front forks easy to swap? I dont know a thing about bikes but I need to learn fast,stuff like changing the breaks and inner valves is next on my list.

Changing forks can be tricky. Firstly steerer tube needs to match that of the suspension fork. More importantly the rake of the replacement fork needs to position the wheel in about the same place as it was on the suspension fork, otherwise the handling of the bike will change.(meaning it'll manoever more or less stable than before) The Sheldon Brown site has info on this.
