What about that jack shaft reason Bob?

The main reason I ordered the jackshaft kit is that I had to order the 10-84 kit and seals and gaskets.  When I tore it down, I did not want to find something else wrong (like a bent jackshaft) and have to be broke down waiting for more parts to arrive.  Figured I would order everything I "thought" I might need at one time so I could put it back together and ride.  Did this just before the York 08 trip and didn't want to miss it (trip) with you guys/gals.

Bob - does that kit come with the necessary instructions?

I looked up the Jim's tool kit for this repair - ain't happening here - over $300!

You recommending a new comp nut too? Why?

Has one bread while torquing it. Not a fun job trying to remove it after it breaks.

Most new ring gears require you to drill out or grind off the pins that hold the stock one on. Then the new one gets bolted on.

Use red or better locktite

Seem to recall you breaking one. I will get one when I pick up the rest of my parts. Mine was torqued once when built and once when it loosened up by the shop, don't know if the TSB was out then.

Yeah and I'm guessing my MOPAR automatic trans clutch tool will not fit this basket to disassemble the clutch so I can grind away  :nixweiss:

Yup had that happen before, the reason was because the pinnion was not engaging the ring gear far enough I had changed out the over running clutch with a new one that came with a new shaft but the spring and the shaft were mixed up with the old one which was slightly shorter this prevented the pinnion gear from engaging properly, when I changed it out I also went to a 9 T pinion 66T ring gear which is much stronger and works waay better this is on a 127" 10.5 / 1 compression and has gone several seasons with no problems.

Well I broke down and put a new chrome starter in. So far so good. Hopefully with the new Rivera ring gear set, new battery cables, this will solve my starting issues. That grinding noise was killing me. Almost hated starting the bike when there were people around. I should be good now (I hope).
