I Did It!!!

I posted a thread last week about wanting to install a threadless headset/suspension fork on my bike.
Well Yesterday I did it. without anyones help. I used a big bolt with some large washers to press in the cups
I had a hard time figuring out how to press on the fork race, but I found that a piece of schedule 40 PVC pipe fit my particular race perfectly, so I smacked it with a rubber hammerr a few times, and it was on. I cut the steerer with my dremel.

this was my first headset install, and I am very pleased with the results. Thanks to everyone who helped.
