Yeah. Cos otherwise the crank arm contacts the brake arch. Might make the bit on the top taller so i can get a full 360 rotation of the spanner. The only complictaed bit is the bit on the end. Needs to be made pretty precisely and has to be tough. This one had a habit of bending when in use. Need to get some thicker steel and better tools
Oh yeah, there is that, I used the crank arm as a handle for a headset press, so nothing in the way... turns out a rubber mallet does the job pretty well anyway
And yeah, the ones I've seen for sale have a pretty burly bit at the end
Hey man! Thats a good point actually. Just run the rod right through the whole in the bottom of the lowers and tap it with a hammer. This way uses less material so its marginally cheaper Theoretically you could just invert the removal tool to make it an installation tool
Yeah. the plate needs to be the same size as the diameter of the walls. Probably is possible. Infact. Repair washers may just be the perfect size already. Are yours the 38mm stanchioned ones?

You can hammer those nuts into square taper cranks and have a nice handle, I guess you use a wrench?
Will upload the installation tool later today
