Hi, great!! Found one on Ebay. Does the spider come off counterclockwise and how do I keep the engine from turning using the tool, impact wrench? Thanks

you dont take apart your clucth on the bike. it had to be off so it can be held in place. that is a nice little video for sure.

you can use a 11 mm deepwell socket so you can use a shorter fine thread bolt. to remove the clucth.

Actually the spider is cracked and it knocks bad so it has to be changed. I have a identical atv for parts.The video was great,so actually I need a puller to make the swap
