Extractors

[camstatic]

They can be a bit of a headache on the drivers' side, you have to drop the steering rack and unclip the steering linkage to fit most brands through, make sure your wheel is locked, and try not to let your front wheels move whilst it's undone. (doesn't hurt to mark things with a white marker)

lol
did extractors in the shed with a rack swap and PS pump swap at the same time, on a VN s1, arguably the worst motor to do extractors on.

Ended as well as could be expected.. wheel alignment issues and a steering wheel that's remarkably off centre

SO! Follow that man's advice ^^

and fitting PH5029's on vp you need to grind down a bit of the block to make em fit:whistling :thumbsup:

I had no issues fitting my Pacemakers, whatever part number they were, to my s1. Apart from just generally being a pain, I have no knocking, rattling, rubbing, anything.

would you recomend installing by yourself of getting a profesional? i'm somewhat mechainical skilled but looks complicated slightly worried

It's pretty straight forward, just a hoist makes life so much easier when it comes to a job like this.

Paul and I did mine in the shed with a jack and some stands. You'll be able to do it, just make sure to allow HEAPS of time (took us 15hrs between beers). Also have new gaskets and some sensor-safe sealant to make sure all is good once done. (I didn't have any sealant, so now I've got a small exhaust leak on cold starts.. annoying tick on one pipe)
