Removing bottom end.
I am trying to find out what it takes to remove the bottom end if the top end is already disassembled. What does it take to disconnect from tranny etc. this is on a 2013 flhx. Videos like the Fuelmoto ones would be helpful.

Complete dis-assembly.Outer and inner primary,chain, compensator off unbolt the trans. and motor mounts stabilizers, unplug all the wires and out she comes. You didn't have to take the top end apart.

not sure on the twin cam, but the H-D evo motor weighs about 135.
Pretty easy to wrap arms around it and pull it out to the rt side.
on re best to have someone guide the crank in while you plant it from the rt side.
they are 18 things that can go wrong and make this harder or more expensive if you think you are saving money by not buying the manual

The manual doesn't tell me weather someone with in experience in this particular job should be doing it, evening with the manual. That's why I asked the question. This forum used to be great for getting knowledge but I see now that it has really gone down hill. I am sick of reading posts where someone has to be a smart a** and can't just give help no matter how simple it may be. Yes, I to get tired of the repetative questions and seemingly endless posts about the same topics, but I don't sit here and bash people for it. I think the people on here that have time to sit here and bash people are not even real riders cause they obviously can't give real advice.

Now that you're done bashing everybody I'm sure you'll get lot's of help!Your first post just asked how do I do it, not how difficult is it or should I be doing this, if you can't figure out from the manual if you should be doing it, DON'T DO IT! The way you asked the question made people think you didn't have a manual, you're the one who got all pissed off.
