Well it's easier when you have some people giving you good advice. It just scares me to either trash the sidecar or the bike. I'm probably spending another $2,500 on the Harley this week, for better sprockets and new clutch, for the...

Apaart, and now safely to the shop. Thanks for the help. 👍

Okay, I'll do that. Thanks. I'm to bolts loose, Jack stands under, Jack available. Front lower is going to come out if I wiggle it now, so I must have a good negative bind on the front. I will thoroughly inspect the turnbuckle at...
