I did mine with a punch and a light ball peen hammer. Blue locktight on
the threads and then tap, tap, tap until it stopped moving. I marked
both lockrings and the plate with dot of white paint so I could see if
they were loosening up. 5K so far and no movement.

i have some play in my front end, and figured i'd tighten the
lockrings.. is
there a way to do this without removing top linking plate? or am i
approaching this all wrong? i can't get either steering tube lockring
or
lock cap to move with a spanner from the side...
