If you don't, when you pull the bearing cup into place you have NO WAY to put the sprocket on the shaft without breaking the chain, believe me, i tried!.Now, when re-installing the sprocket, you tighten the bolt up and it will pull the bearing cup into place for you, the only problem is the bolt on there isn't long enough to start the thread, so buy a bolt 1 - 1/2" longer and you are set, tighten it as far as you can then install the correct one and finish the job.Goodtech - i managed to get both axles on the left side in, the rear one had .005" end float so i threw the washer in the lathe and took .005" off the inside face the same diameter as the axle and it worked a treat, no end float. The front one was perfect first go. Working out where the gear box is suposed to be is a bit of a guessing job, i think the chains are equal lengths, or equal slack. The axles seem to move the same amount, or very close to it. Id on't use my machine on ground that has any grip, i doubt it will do any damage.</blockquote>
