Default 87 LT80 fixed and unfixed plate removal.

My son blew the gears in the rear. Rear wheels are locked even with clutch apart. I replacement gears ready but can’t figure out how to get the fixed and I fixed off. Don’t want to force anything unless I have to. Here’s a picture of where I’m at. Thanks for any help. I got this far without having to ask. 😂

The bearings get stuck on the shaft. Go ahead and use a prybar, it'll pop right off.

Thanks expert. Same thing with the plate behind fixed plate? I removed Allen screws and haven’t had it budge. Also the two bolts on the other side behind sprocket. What’s up with those. They have a flat side or something that makes them impossible to find a socket that fits?

Yes, it get's buldged thus making it hard to get off. The rear bolts: There is a metal piece that is bent down and locking the nut. look close, you'll see it. just tap that back to get a socket on.

Now I know why your called the expert!! Thanks a ton. I have everything out. Going to clean it up real good. Well I’m in here should I just do all new bearings with the new transmission?

The only bearing needed would be the output shaft bearing. 6203 I think. The gearbox cover bearing usually lasts forever but you can check it.
