The rear 2x4x14" support for OHV Big Twins has two 2-1/4" holes core-drilled for rigid and swing arm transmission stud access. Align the 2x4 with the edge of the ramp where yellow corner marks are.
That half-moon hole on the left side of the 2x4 needs the top edge widened back (fluted like, ya' know?) or you can't fit a socket extension up to tighten the right rear trans stud on a rigid frame Big Twin. Also that front 2x4 needs a 6" section cut-down in the middle for skid-pan clearance on a rigid frame. I'm altering mine with the blade depth set on a table saw and making a bunch of relief passes so I can knock out the kerfs like it was routed.
