Just a note to add to your note, Jon.
I changed the cam in my 230 without the tool to hold the gear up, but I used a piece of angle iron held up by a pair of jack stands on the inner fenders. Hook a ratchet strap to the gear, wrap it around the angle, and we're in business.

Back to your regularly scheduled program...

Are these tools available? Does someone have one,that a person could get measurements from? Should be able to fabricate fairly easily I would think.
