J..J. Posted May 29, 2004 Report Posted May 29, 2004 Sorry to hear about your bad luck! Looks like things are going to get a bit more expensive. The locking plate tab has to be bent away. You have to hold the clutch boss with the proper tool, this you can fabricate from an old friction plate. (Tip: Do not try to jam the boss with a screwdriver, damage is sure to result) The nut is to be turned counter clockwise, impact wrench would be easiest. As you have to split the cases for the crank exchange, I suggest slowing down your plans for a while until you've done your homework. Do some searches, a lot has been said about bottom end work. "In for a penny, in for a pound" as my Daddy used to say. You might as well go thru the engine with a fine tooth comb now, and then you know it's done right. There's a whole list of things to check before you re-assemble. I'm sure the others will chime in soon enough. Hope your luck changes for the better! Quote
nuttybabs Posted June 23, 2004 Author Report Posted June 23, 2004 Well a lot of water has passed under our bridge since the last visible post. The Shee is running like a champ!!! Broke in nice and easy and now it is a screaming machine--guess that is why it is a Banshee!!! Bad news is--son broke his leg on one of the break in rides however his dad has had a blast keeping it "warmed up" for him. He is going to be out another 4 weeks at least!!! Other bad news--our son-in-law blew the top end of the other Banshee this weekend. Should be easier this time around--dad got a new motorcycle/quad jack stand and new tools and we have BHQ to help us along. Hope all is going well with everyone out there. Thanks for all your help in the past. Quote
