Helpful Hint, Please!

Pulling my engine. Everything disconnected, unbolted. But frame won't clear engine. Binding at right front mount arm. I know there's a trick to clearing the frame, but I haven't figured it out yet. Thanks. IMG_0419.JPG
SUCCESS! Like Ian said, raise the rear of the frame a little then the front. Keep edging it up. I was on the right track yesterday, but the hoisting cable for the front was attached at an angle toward the back using an overhead beam. So I rigged a vertical drop to the forks so they pulled straight up. I hope it goes in easier than coming out. Thanks for the suggestions and encouragement.

While I was at it, I took a 1 1/16 socket and milled it to make my own T3880062 for the swing arm pivot. IMG_0421.JPG IMG_0423.JPG IMG_0424.JPG IMG_0425.JPG
