F4i engine removel help!
Sooooo all I'm down to is just the motor and the frame....
Swingarm/subframe/ headers are off.... Do I need to make another god damn locking nut tool like the one for the swingarm but only smaller? To get the motor out?? let me know if you guys have any tips tricks for taking/ installing by myself!

Yes you do. an if it is like mine was, I sprayed it with liquid wrench an let it sit a few hours an went drinking,lol. but i used a gsxr front axel nut on the big hex nuts, a flat screw driver an light hammer to tap the castle nuts off. an for the smaller ones, witch are identical to the swingarm ones but smaller I used a piece of all thread an some nuts that fit inside. an after the liquid wrench sat there for a day(I went drinking) they came out like butter. if you need ANYMORE HELP LET ME KNOW. i WILL TRY AN BREAK IT DOWN BETTER FOR YOU IF NEEDED

Put it on a work bench of you can. Its 1000 times easy if you have a lift or bench to put it on. Working on the ground completely blows *** holes. take a couple 2x4's and a couple buddys to help you drop it and take the top moutn out last after swingarm bolt and front mounts.
