Im not sure how the dist. will unbolt and come Bobbie Bees? Without dropping table out?
I have to remove 6 GSX in a couple of weeks to make room for game room and I built a wood "cart" on wheels 24" and after removing table Im going to roll cart under dist. and use 4 jack stands that will raise up and catch the 7/10 pin metal rails, while I unbolt dist. then roll it out the front.
I see how the repair kit will work you drill and bolt on support brackets.
I have welded similar brake but mine was on the side bracket.
I used 3/32 7010 rod with ac welder. Lay a wet bath towel under where your welding. Also i mist water on anything that may be hit by sparks.Have a fire watch and weld it in place.
if you are not proficient in welding make short spot welds or "stitch" welds, letting metal cool and not burn through. practice on scrape to get the heat you feel comfortable with.
Quick and easy.

8230chief, yeah, the table would have to come off. The elevator would have to be removed as well. There's six bolts at the front of the machine and two bolts at the rear of the machine.
The distributor drive belts and the bracket holding up the sweep release link will all have to be undone.
Once the six bolts in front are undone, there are two hangars that will hold the front of the distributor in place.
The brackets holding the rear of the distributor in place will hold the distributor up while the bolts are out.
Removing the distributor is not a single person job. Four people will be required for a comfortable operation.Bobbie Bees

So...as an update...I contacted brunswick tech to explain the problems in the repairs design. Needed another bolt on the outside of the frame, and the outer ear of the bracket was too wide, so the shaft was hitting it. After a few mods, it went together nicely. I told brunswick tech about what and how I accomplished it, and found out that it was designed using a distributor sitting on a bench. They never actually installed 1 on a working machine.
According to them, they are scrapping the existing kits in the field and re-designing everything."Don't expect too much and you'll never be let down..."
