The new belt and pulley are on. Thanks HD EVO Forum members, big thanks to Spanners
The weather has finally warmed enough to get the old Super Glide back in shape. Spanners, your tutorial was absolutely invaluable! Thanks for that.
A small point that I missed was putting the jackshaft coupler in backwards so the screw could not engage the threads. Had to take it all apart and start over. Otherwise I would have been done yesterday. I stumbled across a set of ball end Allen sockets, or wobble bits if you prefer, at a local cheapo tool house. Made the starter bolts much easier to deal with.
How about a belt?
Thanks Surdykes, best price I found.
Pay close attention to ALL of the jackshaft pieces. It will save you time.
Get a set of these. They'll make you happy.
It really is easier than it looks. Getting to 160 ft. lbs. with an old beam type 150# wrench takes some work.
