Anyone know how to get the primary off without purchasing the puller. Ive seen people hear saying something about using a trailer ball and threaded rod. Has anyone tried this?

 

I've mentioned it on here before. I used a 2" trailer ball that was fine threaded. Then use a 3/8" extension with a socket. Stick it in the shaft coming out of the primary, and screw in your trailer ball. The bolt on the ball will press on the ext. which presses on the shaft, as the ball pulls out on the clutch, and then it will pop right off. I've done it many times with this method.

 

Buy a puller you don't have to mass up the threads with the ext. about $14.00

 

called 61 marine and sports in hastings mn today they want $35 for a puller

 

where can you get a puller for 14.00???
I paid 34.99 through dennis Kirk??? cheapest i found???
and I don't think the trailer ball trick wouldnt have worked on mine.... someone must have used an impact to get it on[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]it did not come off easy!!!

 

hot seat performance sells them for $20. use the ball and extension with socket method. just tighten down on the ball with a pipe wrench until you meet extreme resistance. now just take a hammer and lightly tap on the ball. presto it will take off the most stubborn clutches.

 

Make sure you buy the trailer ball with the smaller 3/4" diameter shaft.

Make sure to remove the ball before riding..hehe, so you don't hurt your own.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
