HOGRIDA_06 I ended up cutting the sprocket nut off. They don't make a breaker bar big enough to move that nut.

I had a hell of a time with the sprocket nut. I tried 4 different air wrenches, 2 electric impact wrenches, and several different breaker bars with 4' cheater, and heat. When I was in the boutique getting some parts I talked with the tech and he said to just stay on it with the impact wrench (I was only hitting it for 10 to 15 seconds at a time). Mine came loose after about 45 seconds of continuous hammering with a cordless electric impact wrench.
Easy to re-cal the speedo with PV.
Good Luck!

Anyway, I think I have everything I need except the sprocket nut in case my big breaker bar fails me. My dealer did not have it on hand but ordered it for me. $10 nut that I hope to hand back to HD.
Plan on doing mod June 13-14, have a pack of days off, so should be able to not worry about being rushed and can post more.

With the cost of the tools it may be the same price to have it done....by a pro...I know, not as satisfying

Install starts. Went for a quick ride to warm up primary fluid and then came back and removed derby cover. I wanted to see where the primary fluid came up to so I would be more comfortable refilling - HD SM gives you a range of 32 oz "wet" to 40 oz "dry". I think after this mod is done, I will be closer to the 40 oz "dry". Anyway the fluid level came up to touch the bottom of the clutch spring.

Primary chaincase cover removed - messy ordeal.
First thing I have noticed is my primary drive locking tool is too short. I bought the 5.95" size, does anybody know the right length for my 2012 Fat Bob? Can make my own or may just do the rag in the chain trick.
On to remove the starter.
