Re: Rear spring perch fix procedure
Thanks. For reassembly I do have a rear spring spreader. Thanks, I just didn't want to proceed without checking first if I was overlooking something.

Re: Timing Gear Replacement
Thanks very much for your advice. I do have an impact wrench and the special socket for the nut. I will try that first before any heat.

Re: Assembly - fan to water pump
