4.7. ENGINE AND GEARBOX

In case the following has not been done yet:

- Attach the two support brackets to the engine
- Attach the first silencer to the underside of the gearbox, using two M7x16 bolts and two flat washers
- Attach the drive shafts to the gearbox side, using M9 bolts and nuts. Preferably, use a locking bond, e.g. Locktite.
- Make sure the gaiter for the wheel side of the drive shaft is in place.
- Attach the (longer) clutch cable to the gearbox; make sure that the inner cable falls behind the clutch fork.
- Undo the rear two bolts of the gearbox, by turning them only a few times until they are able to slip over the mounting bracket
- With the use of an engine hoist or two assistants, hang the combined engine, gearbox and first silencer over the chassis.
- Make sure to introduce the two halves of each drive shaft gently as the engine/gearbox combination is lowered into position.
- Attach the gaiters on the drive shaft at the gearbox side with tie wraps.

ATTENTION! The gaiter is ONLY attached to the gearbox side!

- Tighten the bolts of the front engine support brackets
- Followed by the bolts at the gearbox bracket
- Install the parking brake cables and loosely tighten the adjusting nuts (do not do the final adjustment just yet)
