Also, on the jacksaft..... I adjusted mine to ensure there is just a tiny bit of side-to-side motion on the shaft, only a millimeter or so. If the two side frame pieces are squeezing the bearings, they will wear severely within a few hundred miles. With just the smallest bit of side-to-side play, wear upon the bearings shoulde be next to nothing.
And ensure the sprocket teeth line up nearly perfectly, else you will be throwing chains off. It happened to me!
