Default willing to help

I live in northern indiana, close to North Manchester.

If you are in the area, and would like to do cam work on your twin cam.. I have all the bearing installers, pullers, tensioner tools, oil pump aligning pins and push rod cover tools. I will help ya out.

I have install sheets for andrews and S and S, and feuling. as I installed them in my 04 twin cam. I have a o4 with a good ol carb.

I can help. I am not a shop. but do some hot rod work at my house. More of a fabricator of neat stuff.

fwiw, i did 37 g cams, feuling pump and cam plate, new bearings and adj push rods,,,,,runs killer. sounds like a harley should.

e-mail me at afahrnow@yahoo.com.

I do not loan out tools, but will help you use them.

No problem,, I dont see why you ned to pay the big bucks shop labor when I have the tools and directions to help out a fellow rider.

its not a real hard job.

I have the dial indicators to check crank runout also. I only have service manual for twin cam , as that is what i owna nd work on.

I will also help do brakes, rotors and sprokets ( rear wheel)

I am in no way afiliated with a shop, and expect no liability issues to be held against me. Who ever needs help will be turnin wrenches also.

I just wanta help out those that cant afford to pay shop labor and dont own the tools. Seems a shame to leve them set on the bench after one use. Pretty simple job , really. ( cam change, that is).

Damn nice of you. Wish you lived in NM. I am going to be doing some work that I have never attempted, and it would be nice for there to be someone there to look over my shoulder and let me know if I am doing something wrong...
