Looks like a great build. I don't want to hijack the thread but am doing a rebuild myself and was wondering where is the best place to order the snap rings? Any other must replace parts while you have the cases split? Thnks

Sealed bearings are much better :-)

Absolutely agree....I slapped on a set of T.M.Designs rollers a few months back.Not only do they last way longer than stockers...but now the chain does'nt even come close to the sub-frame,(I do have a shield on the frame though,just in case :wink:)

I finally finished fixing one of the threaded inserts that are used to hold the sub frame on.
A little welding, drilling, and tapping and were as good as new :-)

I'm going to order mine from http://www.powersportsplus.com/
I have ordered a bunch of parts from them and they always seem to come through.
I plan on replacing all the snap rings.
