What did you hold the triple clamp with to get the steering stem nut off? Of course it might help to weight down my frame since I don't have the engine in there.

One hand on the frame and the other on the breaker bar.

It's a real bitch getting everything to line up though. :rant:
 
I was hoping to finish it tonight but I ended up stabbing myself with some pliers, I'll post pictures tomorrow. :lol:

Seriously. :lol:

After it happened I was like "Did I really just do that?". :facepalm:

:lol: Don't worry I'm pretty sure we've all done something like that. I hate to admit it but I was looking at the torque spec for a 8mm bolt and it was on a team green article, where with a lack of sleep I looked and saw 87 ft lbs. Not thinking I literally did that and bam the bolt broke lol it was supposed to be 8.7 ft lb :banghead:
