Does anyone have a drawing or list of order of parts that goes on for the headlight mounts (ears)? I don't have enough pictures of my teardowns to recall the order between the lower and upper triple trees....


Thank you!!!!
 
It's a 78 special. Parts diagrams don't show the specifics though, I believe there's some extra parts not listed that I'm missing.
 
All the parts needed should show on the following diagrams.

So I've reviewed those already and can't make heads or tails of it yet, but here's what I interpreted:

Lower triple - "washer, oil seal" - "gasket" - cover - "guide, cover lower" - "gasket". If someone has a picture of the parts it would be FAR more helpful than the fiche's. I've tried to assemble the way the guide shows, but there's slop in the mounts.

Thanks.
 
Check this out. Hope it fits well for you.

Ah, I seem to be pretty close to that, thanks @Machine that is quite helpful!!

Now to address the headlight ear alignment, it's quite difficult to the the bucket in there (might need to bend them some more)
