Ive done a few row spacing changes on the black heads,  its an all day long affair as all the bolts comes out of the tin work, all the row units have slide, the worst was the torx bolts holding the wear plate at the end of the snaping rollers, it might break off or strip out.  Now these heads were new, everything wasnt rusted, the first one took a couple of days the second a little longer that a day.

You will need to get different coupler shafts for between each row unit.  They are specific for each row spacing.  
The innovators offer what others will imitate.
