Help! Star spangled nut!

rpm, I can see this working....but I'm still not sure why you would do it this way when I beer or two will get someone to put it in for you, correctly.

You have to remember, this is someone who felt they had to ask, not an experienced mechanic.

I have added to my post to reflect this.

For some reason I am always fitting forks and this little job comes up time and again,each time I think I must remember to get the tool but never do!

(same with headset press, but I'm not talking hammers there)

I'm coming into your shop, to buy tyres. Soon but not this week...ninja
