the finger meter has 12 fingers and your brush meter has 60 cells. The population for corn would
be 32000 - 160,000/5 = 32000. Going to the corn chart for 32000 it says 11 driver and 9 driven.

30k corn = 150 soybean with 60 cell kinze meter
Get a book or at least a print out of the pop chart. I change pops many times through a year .

You are talking about a Kinze brush meter correct ?
Not a 56 cell JD radial bean meter
Not a actual plate like the old style plate planters ? Not sure but I think those could have been an option on a 7000 but were sort of uncommon.
Basically you want to set it for a 32K corn rate.
12 fingers in a corn meter so it's a 5:1 ratio for the 60 cell plate.
32,000 x 5 = 160,000
Here are the stickers for the 7000 planter
https://www.joharrissales.com/assets/Uploads/PDFs/PlantingCharts/Transmission-Diagram.pdf
You have the older sticker at the bottom which uses double length chain. The top sticker is for those that have newer style sprockets. Don't worry the ratio is still the same on both stickers.
Here is the finger pickup chart
https://www.joharrissales.com/assets/Uploads/PDFs/PlantingCharts/FPU-Chart.pdf
See pic 1 below for the 32K rate and 22-18 sprocket combo.
See pic 2 below for the correct 22-18 sprockets for the regular tooth transmission.
See pic 3 for the 11-9 tooth sprockets for double length chain you have.
Pic 3 is what you have.
11 bottom shaft driver
9 top shaft driven
Pic 4 are your sprockets
Previous discussion of all of this.

Just move those spacers around on both shafts so the right sprockets line up, and put the spacers back in to keep the sprockets in position. Should be no need to remove a shaft.

All your other sprockets slide back and forth to line up with each other using the short chain.
You need to remove the lump of spacers to the right under the tape.
Then all those loose sprockets slide all the way to the right.
Thr. The left most sprocket of the bottom loose ones will line up with the rightmost loose sprocket on the top shaft, which I think is what you are aiming for?
Maybe I should go back and read the numbers better and I don’t understand tho.......

There are 5 loose sprockets on the top shaft, and 5 loose sprockets on the bottom shaft.
You want the top set of sprockets slid all the way to the left (as you did) and you want the bottom group of sprockets slid all the way to the right (you need to remove those remaining spacers) and then the proper 2 sprockets will line up for the short chain to cover.
The drive chain on the very left is not part of this, it always remains there on the very left on its fixed sprocket. (I believe there is a special sprocket made to put in place here for making a half rate, but that doesn’t apply here now.)

I get hung up and struggle with the simplest things when I haven’t done that before type of thing.
Just means we are good thinkers, if we over analyze stuff. Anyhow that’s what I tell myself!

Is it just me, or is the left chain (the drive chain?) on at an angle?
It looks like there's another sprocket on the front of the left chain on the drive shaft, closer to the frame. It looks like the chain would run more true if on that sprocket.
But I've been wrong before.
