I did not have to do anything special on my WG, just put it on the jiffy stand and swap em out.&nbsp\\; Nothing behind the timer cover to worry about.

Nothing behind timer cover, but put a 2X4 under your Jiffy stand before you remove the Primary cover and you won't lose any oil (be careful when your bike is sitting like that)

Strap it down good. Have someone help. Don't over tighten the bolts ! Torque to specs. &nbsp\\;\\\\\\;Use anti-sieze ?
