Hello, I'm putting my MF135 back together after the complete engine rebuild and repainting everything. I removed the bolt for the rear diff lever thinking I could remove the foot lever/pedal to paint it, unfortunately I couldn't get it off the shaft that easily. Now I can't seem to line up the flat position on the shaft to reinstall the bolt, at least I think there is a flat piece on the shaft where the bolt slides in. I tried to grab the shaft with needle nose pliers but there isn't enough room to grab the shaft and rotate. I though about grinding an old pair of needle nose pliers thin enough to grab and rotate the shaft upwards to get the bolt in. Has anyone had this issue before and can lend some advice? Thanks, Don
