I'll give mine a look this evening, I've replaced mine before and don't recall it was that tricky. I do recall roaming around for a week with second gear only around town after my one armed bandit broke off. When you're young and without funds you can make anything last, LOL.

"...my good horse Rocinante, mine eternal and inseparable companion in all my journeys and courses." ...Don Quixote, Cervantes
