Message: <blockquote data-quote="kfin" data-source="post: 34907" data-attributes="member: 3050">I started to get ready for my new chains today, they are being delivered Monday. They are all VERY loose so I will change them all. I ran a magnet down in the oil and found the center pin of one of the chain links all tore up. I am not sure if it is from a current chain or if someone had changed it before and not cleaned it up.Taking the front chain case cover was not difficult at all. The center one though was more interesting. I had to take off the pedal control bars and also the 2 speed brake. There were several electrical connections and hydraulic hoses going to the brake that I just took loose. I believe that I can change all of the chains without taking the back cover off as there are many hoses and things that would have to be removed.Questions. Between the front of the chaincase and the chain around the sprocket, there is very little room. Is there a way to make the wheels/sprockets "free spin" so I can get the new chain on there without taking other things apart? What is the easiest method to swap chains without taking it any further apart? With the brake and all of the hydraulic hoses disconnected, I can't start it and slowly drive it to feed the chain on....can I?Thanks,Keith</blockquote>
