Hello all,

I removed the motor from the frame of my 2007 rocket III classic (silver). I have a transmission problem and since the trans is located in the lower half of the engine I am going to glip this guy upside down to work on it. I will be installing new undercut shafts with a billet 4th gear anf some nice wide snap rings. Does anyone have a recommendation on a way(or specific stand) to hold this motor upside down and stable??
Thanks in advance!

-Jonah

I got a laugh out of that. I was hoping to have the area above the motor free of chains or anything to obstruct access or view. I think you may he right though.

Seriously though, I'd use an engine hoist and suspend it from a chain.

just the right size garbage can
it works on automatic transmissions when u need to pull the pump w/o the rest falling apart.
 
See ! Rather go to the expense of lift hoists , engine cranes or cradles , it's much easier to build a log cabin , nice sofa or two , blazing fire , angle poise lamp ( very sought after in black , but more so in green ) . And a giant muffin on which to place your calms scented candles and assorted antique salt glazed vessels !
