MoRads thread also said to lay out your case bolts in advance, and put them in half torque first have a beer while things are equalizing, and then final torque.
I think it would be easier if you took the long post and broke it down to one step at a time on 3x5 index cards.
Thank you for taking the time to post all the information and set up the photo's.
You will be glad you did when it comes time to write the book. That chapter would be done! 8-)
Unless you told him how to use the pick-up truck press method.. :lol:

This was in the desert, and it was... Umm.. thanks giving.. me and the wife decided to spend it out there, riding bikes instead of with the fam, last year... but for some reason or another, camped out of the back of my 1967 FJ40 instead of taking the camper... Hmm dont know why now.. Gas prices?
YES... all the questions you are asking are WRITTEN out step BY STEP in the directions I posted.... take your time.. read it 6 more times.. make notes, idex cards, etc.... what ever it takes...

alot of bikes wont shift unless you are turning that.. as if the bike is rolling..
