I didn't completely remove the sidecar but every bolt was loosened to get the front mount to rotate down far enough to get the head off the engine.

I have found, however, the using the special tool for the rear lower support helps a lot, but for the front (where the special tool won't fit), I've had to loosen the clamp to the tug's frame in order to push it into the sidecar subframe.....PITA.<br /><br />Glad to hear all went well and the URAL is rolling again.<br /><br />The bubbles?

Supposedly, it only needs to be about -12°C for the bubbles to freeze as long as you use the right solution.RichardMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773834892715980735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1512448163402185409.post-44087591784146066162015-02-09T17:06:47.699-09:002015-02-09T17:06:47.699-09:00Richard - frozen bubbles, awesome.
