If I remember correctly, the post ericr is referring to, used a decent sized C clamp and a larger ball bearing to "set" the top part of the D nut. The C clamp would provide pressure to the ball bearing to force the top part outward. Once the top part is force outward, a ball peen hammer could be used to finish the installation. I bought several ball bearing on eBay to try the technique, but like many things, I have not needed to tried it yet. I think that maybe the ball bearing might need to have a flat spot made on the top to keep the C clamp from slipping - but maybe not.
