If not, tools can be had for a lot less $ today than 30 years ago. Harbor Freight end wrenches will do the job, a beam type 3/8ths torque wrench from Sears is about $30.00. I dont think Id do a HF torque Wrench, someone else may have a higher opinion of their tools. A place can be faked up with PVC & a coupla tarps, but Im not a big fan of opening engines up "out in the elements", tho, I Have installed stuff under the valve cover of an engine out in a field in West Texas,, Hadda be done,, oilfield stuff doesnt wait for Just the Right Time"..
Keeping bolts in order is a good idea, a piece of cardboard with the outline of the part the bolts are coming out of & an X cut in it at the right places, poke the bolts in as they come out,,A maintenance manual is a really handy thing. Online is one source, bought in hard copy is pricey,
Thanks for all the input..
I have a garage and plenty of hand tools including a torque wrench.
I eve have a MC lift too.
I have a hard copy manual too.
I just don't quite understand all the terms and what I'm looking at in the manual. A video would go a long way.
(BTW - I have a some harbor freight tools, some are really good, so are Ok for occasional use)
I guess I'm going to have to give a try and post anything where I get stuck. Maybe I'll have to document it with my camera.
I live near Littleton Co., I wish we had a sav club here where we could have a wrench weekend!
