How-to for the huge locknut on the steering stem needed

[CFM]

So now that I forgot to pull it before coating, how do I do it now???

 

Who has the special tool, or do I need to make one???

 

Already have the stem re-build kit in hand..

 

Thanks

this is the biggest PITA in rebuilding a banshee.. one trick is to do it the redneck way with a good ol hammer and chisle and knock it loose.. whatch your fingers lol.... or you can find a square bar that fits into the nut and twist it out..i used a swaybar end link one time that randomly fit perfect... if your creative enough its not that hard.. iv never seen the tool for it if they do make one.. and your gonna want to clean the powdercoat off the threads..

I guess I'll do the upsidown bolt head with two welded nuts backyard mechanic special then...

 

Damn I wish I remembered that beforehand..

 

Thanks

If anybody needs this tool, I made one that attaches to a 1/2 drive, works perfect...

 

Now that I replaced the bearing, I have no use for it...

 

Hopfully can save sombody some time.
