| | THANKS!
For helping keep this great
old truck web site
on the Internet for over 30 years! and not clogged down with Ads! Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Mar 2009 Posts: 124 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2009 Posts: 124 | the bearing retainer from my sm420 requires a spanner wrench to rmove it. i have a spanner that fits but this reverse threaded reatainer is really on there. i was thinking of welding a cheater onto the spanner but i think i would just break the pins off the spanner.
does anyone have a suggestion or tip on how to get this retainer off. the bearing behind it is shot. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 Riding in the Passing Lane | | Riding in the Passing Lane Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 | I generally use a narrow chizel & catch the edge of a flat & tap it off. They usually arn't tight though. They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though.

i called a local transmission shop. they are going to give it a try tomorrow.
plus i ordered my rebuild kit from novac. it should be here by friday. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2009 Posts: 124 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2009 Posts: 124 | i ended up using a friends air wrench with a punch. i buggered up the holes a bit. in 2065 when the transmission gets rebuild again, i hope my great grandaughter doesnt curse my ham-fisted technique. | | |
