i know that i have to take the clutchs out and remove the basket but i dont HAVE A CLUTCH GEAR HOLDER SO I NEED TO IMPREVISE OR USE SOMETHING ESLE

any body have any ideas or has done this

Slip a penny in between the hub gear and the crank gear and have at it. Or use an impact to spin that nut off. Just make sure to bend the washer tabs flat if there is one.

is it hard to get the racthet gear and spring off

It's not hard at all as the ratchet gear has a pin on the back side that slips into a hole. The spring is the only thing that needs to be reinstalled correctly or the kicker will just fall or stay at the bottom.You can probably get the kicker gear out of the motor without removing the clutch basket but it won't go back in without a fight. On the back side there is a smaller spring with a cog that has teeth that gives the ratchet action. There are two dot's on both that need to be realigned when reinstalled.

The one won't move without the other. The inner basket will only move by itself if the clutch plates are removed. To get the main nut off use an impact to spin it off. Make sure you flatten the lock washer if one is installed.

A penny is softer than a bolt also.

ya i took the clutches out and the inner part moved freely without the hub outside


so if a put the clutchs in and take a impact to it it should come off right

and the washer has to be perfectly flat

and maybe have some one hold the clutches and hub when im spinning the nut off
