Those porta power units are great. It took me a day spreading out the hole for the 3 1/2 DP, I didn't think I would ever get it. Then a year or so after that it was hitting and making noise, I had to adjust it.

Yes, I used the port-o-power since the first time and was a piece of cake, even without cutting anything of the sheam, and worked perfect.
