Hey everyone,
This post is regarding my Sportster LE DI.
I am hoping someone has a hint for this. I can't get the counterbalance end plate back on for my air compressor overhaul. I have everything else in the compressor put back together but this. I have tried a few things... wedging it in with a pry bar and banging it in with a hammer and rubber mallet... no luck. As you can see from the photos, the PTO cover partially covers the end plate and there is a groove in the plate where the plate slides in. The two photos show the plate off and the plate partially on.
I know it would be easy with the PTO cover off, but that means removing a whole bunch of other stuff that will require many hours more work.
If removing the PTO cover is the only way to get this back on, then some guidance on what to do next would be appreciated.
