Axle stuck in carrier

[joe22883]

Wondering if anybody has any ideas on getting the axle out of the carrier on my blaster. Ive been beatin the hell out of it and it wont budge. Ive tried heating it up also soaked it in some pb last night but have not had any luck at all. The bearings almost looks like its part of the axle its o froze up. Figured id ask to see if anyone has any tricks they might use when having this problem Im done for the day i saoked it again in some PB im gonna give it another go tomorrow

I've heard that you really have to beat it out of there. Make sure you cover the threads by double nutting or using a socket.
I have destroyed one trying to get it out.

Yea i have been trying to be careful ive been beating it against a 6x6 beam. damn thing wil not give though.. im out of ideas right now i saoked it again before i called it quits tonight im hoping that works but i doubt it. fIGURED id see if anyone had any tricks to getting them out.. next thing i might try is cutting the inside ring of the bearing somehow if i can get in there and seeing if that helps it but then there is the other bearing i cant get at so i dont know

Place a few pieces of plywood on the garage floor. Hold the axle about 6-12 inches above the plywood and let it drop under it's own weight with the side you want out facing up and drop it while making sure it won't fall over and it will bump itself out eventually. It's safe and how I have done it in the past. And make sure it doesn't hit the concrete or you could mar the shaft splines.

Beet the SHIT out of it,that is happened to me and i had to beat the piss out of it back and forth to get it out

[joe22883]

Man all I can say is I beat the shiite out of mine and after I destroyed the threads, I BEAT IT EVEN HARDER!!! It was the principal of the thing. I never got it out. Sometimes they are just stuck. FWIW the correct way is to use a press on it. I don't have one of those so.......

[joe22883]

yea i dont either im just gonna be careful as possible i guess but its coming out one way or the other..

LMAO Take it to a machine shop and get them to press it out for 10 bux it will save you major headaches and more time for beer!

[joe22883]
