    one word... Loctite!

    Should work easy, get a trans cover gasket, also before you put it all together remove the clutch cable, place the spacer on the cable and see how many threads you have showing through the spacer. Be sure there is enough clearance with the spacer on between the trans cover, any mounts and the frame/oil pump area.

    Dougs RK is an evo and has an oil pump that for some stupid reason they left with nice sharp square edges, so with the ez pull it put the cable right up on that edge and it would cut the cover on the cable...

    So trial fit it all

    Also a little trick, you'll have to drain the trans if you do it on a life (because if you don't when you pull off that cover, it will drain, so if you are ready to change fluids, go for it, but if not.

    Lay two 2x6 on the floor and pull the front and rear tire up on the boards, then tilt over on the side stand, this forces the oil over to the other side and you won't have that big a mess....
