Making progress! The prior thread had pictures throwing off the screen size.

Got both Flexitors on today as well as the pivot arm on one side. The prior owner had the flexitor spindles on with no offset angle. Read the shop manual....recommended is 17 degrees from machine frame. The picture is on the right side, "leading"....so manual says to mount the "left" flexitor for the right side. Not sure why they do that as it's the recommended spindle position. Still working on how to get that monster spring connected (under tension) to the rear pivot arm...that's going to be a trick! Having fun.

I just realized....I mounted the spindle arms backwards! Am I correct? I think they need to be swapped upside down.
