I have to replace the starter ring on my sons 924S ( ring was trashed due to wrong starter (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) i was sold) I am almost there, but am unable to pull the torque tube out of the front bellhousing. i have been at it for two days now and am considering making it a parts car if i cant pull the damn thing out. it is suppose to come out without force. I have all the workshop manuals and advice on other forums but need some sort of trick to make it come out.

First off it is and Auto, second everything is removed, it comes out about an inch then stops, it looks to me like the collate that the clamp fits on and the torque tube drive shaft goes into maybe frozen on.
But i dont know it comes out part way then stops, I have spun that tube around more than Linda Blairs head in the exorcist and laying on my back have used my feet and legs and a wedge of wood hammered in between the torque tube and the bell housing. still a no go. I dont think it's the pilot bearing . I am running out of time as i have already spent 4 days on it, if i cant get it out i regrettably will make this a parts car. |
