It looks like a lot of things, but it is easy. Start by laying the right frame half on the table. Insert the top (item 3) and bottom (item 3) main shaft bearings as well as the top start shaft bearing (2) and the pinion bearing/clutch bell assembly (16). Insert all of the white frame spacers (4) and (5) into that side. Note that as you can see in the picture below, some frame spacers are short and some long. Note2: I have been told that some new kits (November 2004) now come with four metal spacers. These are installed around the main shaft bearings as seen in the photo at the bottom of this page. Next insert the two red pulleys (12) with pins (7) installed into the slots in the frame. I marked a hole in the left frame where the pulley can be seen after it's installed. The pulleys just slide into the slots and the belt will keep them from coming out. Next join the frames together. You may have to lay the left frame on top of the right and align each post to slide in the holes of the left frame. Now it's time to bolt the frames together. There are 30 of the (1) screws. Don't tighten them so tight you strip out the plastic, just get them snug. The plastic will hold them, do not use loctite. Some use a small drop of CA on the tips of the screws, but I don't feel it's necessary on any of the ones in this section. I have never had any of these try to back out. Having said that, don't assume anything, keep an eye on all bolts and screws. If you find one of the screws that goes into plastic trying to come out, then clean it and put a small drop of CA on the tip.
Now that you have the framset together with bearings, pulleys, and clutch bell assembly together, it's time to install the servo tray (8). It is held in with 3 screws on each side.
