Any thoughts on how to hold the jack shaft to tighten the wobble bearing to 35 foot pounds?? I don't have the spine socket but did make a tool for the bearing nut.

How about applying the brake , should stop that from turning eh !
 
The top gears and chain need to be removed to tighten the nut, so it's no longer connected to the brake.
I ended up making my own tool to hold each end by going to autozone and tractor supply and welding up some bar stock to some sockets. Trying it tonight.

Can you prevent the secondary from turning by placing a bar through the helix. That would lock the shaft to get your 30 ft lbs.
I do the same thing but in reverse when tightening up the primary clutch bolt. Works fine. Just be gentle.
