Stephen,
I bought an el-cheapo gear puller and ground the jaws down so that they
would grab the race and pull it out. Warming the rear drive with a heat
gun helped to free the race but ruined the outer seal.

| Has anyone ever seen the tool 12906900, which removes the needle bearing outer race from the rear drive box? Has anyone disassembled the rear drive to the point of removing that race? I'm at that point with my 72 Eldo and would like some ideas. I can make a tool to remove the race but would like to avoid "re-inventing the wheel" if possible. tia stephen. |
