I've got the same kind of puller. A long threaded rod with different size fittings on each end. It makes changing these things out a piece of cake. A little muscle power is all it takes.
Cheers, Elliot
Can't remember where I bought mine and it wasn't cheap but it was well worth it to me.

Well... one of you'z boyz step up and loan him your expensive tool. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smash.gif)

So Rusty... this is the Aubergine car (not the Purple car)?

Probably happened when the Evil-One was spotted doing donuts in it (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/happy11.gif)

Guy... come on (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif)

Eric, really... I tried this one time. I was able to knock an old rear bearing out, slip the seals out with an Xacto blade around the outside edge, then remove the ball bearings and check the races. Packed it with grease and put it back together. I never put it back in the car because I had already ordered a new one. I am a little crazy I guess.

Yes, this is the aubergine car.

Can someone post a picture of this most wonderful tool? My local FLAPS has a tool lending program... maybe they'll have one.

No, I haven't. I was planning on doing that with the oil change tomorrow.

Gearbox failure. That's a scary thought. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)

The sound comes and goes. The pitch of the sound changes with speed, not with RPMs. It doesn't change when I push down on the clutch.

I checked mine at Gint's place and it was a quart low! My box was clean so It has been low for a long time! It's ok though.


I had a great time meeting you and Pam at lunch. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) I hope the car is ok.

Hey, Rusty,

While you have it all apart you may as well install some Mueller bearings or Elephant bushings. And then of course you can always.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

My gear oil was pretty low. Sometimes the simplest (and cheapest) solutions are the right ones. I changed both the gear oil and the engine oil while I was under there.

Thanks, Curt! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif)

Hey Gint... I'll save you the breath - you told me so. We should have put the car up on the lift while we had the chance.

I haven't driven it yet... I'm too dirty to put my butt into the nice new upholstery. After a shower and some lunch, I'll go back out!
