Hold on a sec - I think what I shared last week was wrong.
The splitter should not go down low but I think instead it mounts at the top in the grove, no? Attached thumbnail(s)

Stop even thinking about using that tool to remove a set of dog teeth.

Flip the tool over let the flat part hold the groove, you want as much surface area as possible, and the wedge side is asking to slip off. Also, you want to tighten it snug not too tight that it’s squeezing, you just want it to hold the dog teeth. This should work if you’re careful. Watch with protective eye/face gear for even lift, slippage, and cracking, I’ve had them shatter under pressure. While I echo other sentiments of using the right too for the job, and your chances of ruining parts (or hurting youself) is higher with a one size fits all compromise tool, but the actual Porsche recommended tools are not always perfect. Long story short, the “porsche tool” by sir tools for the 930 dog teeth is wrong, and after providing detailed description of the proper design, photos, measurements and sketches, along with the proper use and care using a press rather than the suggested BFH - yes that how he told me to get them off, the idiot at sir tools (the son and current owner) finally confessed that he had never seen a set of the dog teeth in person, nor had he ever used the tool to verify his instructions would work. |

This gets better and better.
Even with the right tools this is a job better left to someone with the right tools and experience. Maybe there is someone local you can contact ? or send to ? That said...removal can be done with VERY careful grinding to remove tension.... but still not recommended. Installation also has its difficulties.....you need a hotplate, a freezer, a good sturdy press and press plates. No hammers. |
