See anything in error on my CVT/Jackshaft assembly so far..Thanks
"Question the weak backplates..Are they inherently weak?"
Most of the backplates of the CTV's are die cast aluminum. The ones I have seen have a casting flaw called a knit line, and that is where they break.
Your jackshaft set-up should negate the side load that causes the back plate to fracture. Nice work you got going carbine.

Some things accomplished today..Motor is in, pic of the jackshaft, and the mounting plate and motor bolted in the frame.. Hopefully the dang rear sprocket will come tommorow..Thanks
