I had the same problem with stuck sprockets. I got out my porta power, put some pressure on it and next thing I knew the axle shot out the side of the tub. Worked on both sides.
OK guys more questions. I'm going back together. How are the jack shafts pinned to the adjusters, cotter pin or roll pin? How much lateral play is ok with jack shaft sprockets? Can I use regular washers for spacers on jack shaft? Thanks in advance
The jackshaft support uses cotter pins. Most of the jackshafts I have adjusted have quite a bit of lateral play. I'm not sure what the tolerances are. You should be able to use any washer to act as a spacer.
Thanks much Mike. I've been trying to use my older unit as a guide but, it's been cobbled up pretty good so I want to make sure I don't screw anything up. After I get this one done, I'll tear into the older unit and try to make it right.
Well I was making pretty good progress till I noticed this bent jack shaft. How I missed it when I was cleaning everything up I do not know. I did get fuel tank mount and roll bar mount cleaned and painted though.
