One quick rap and the sprocket retaining bolt was loose when I did mine. Be sure to clearly mark the sprocket and chain prior to removal. I also loosened the tensioner, but did not remove it for the guide rail replacement. This gives just that little bit extra slack needed to reassemble when the new guides are in. I marked my sprocket and chain with Testors silver paint after cleaning thoroughly with carb cleaner. No rockers were removed at the time.
