Much abliged.
Still trying to get a pic on this site and become sponsor. Will keep at it.
Looking forward to that 16 tooth sprocket in the future. hope to help others
We used a car jack right under the the engine, just forward of the rear tire... Took some trial and error. Also used some plywood for added stability. And would have some act as a safety just in case. They can hold it all steady as you work. Be careful....
