rossman Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 So what is the trick to getting the bell housing off the gearbox? I removed the tail shaft half now I cannot get the bell housing side off of the main gear set. I removed 3 snap/lock rings underneath the front cover. I've been wacking the joint at the center plate but it wont come apart more than a mm or so. I'm afraid to hit it too hard for fear of breaking something. Do I need a bigger hammer? BTW I found this nice guide: http://forums.nicoclub.com/zerothread/226812 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rossman Posted March 6, 2009 Author Share Posted March 6, 2009 I read thru that whole tread. Nothing about disassembly. I must be doing something wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB26powered74zcar Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Did you remove the spring and ball? It's located on the right hand side toward the top of the case... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rossman Posted March 7, 2009 Author Share Posted March 7, 2009 A couple of good wacks with the hammer this morning and it came right off. Cheers, Ross Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woldson Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 Was the hammer recently calibrated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossman Posted March 8, 2009 Author Share Posted March 8, 2009 I switched to my metric hammer. It helps when you use the right tools Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
