Track Removal suggestions

Post by JDDDeere »

Hi,

I'm salvagnig the track off a 78 Spit (as a back up to an 80 Spit and an 83 Sprint). I;ve gotten the brake assembly apart fairly easily, but the drive sheave (PTO side) is proving a bit more of a challange. I got the 3 bolts out that hold half of the sheave, and have removed the center bolt as well, but I am not sure how to get ("pull"?) the fixed portion of the sheave of the drive axil. Turst I need to accomplish this before I can slid it out. Any past experience would be great/helpful!!!!

(also, anyone have a clutch bolt for a 102C there willing to sell. I pay half of what they sell at dk trader which is $12.00. Size is 1/2 by 6 1/2 fine thread


Thanks,
Dan

All set. The sheave slid off the drive axil with some "gentle" banging of a 3 pound hammer... much easier than I thought!
