Posted: 10:28 - 12 Jun 2021 Post subject: Gearbox circlip removal |
|
|
Hi all,
Anyone got any tips for how to get this off. It doesn't look like it's designed to be removed with standard circlips as it has no holes. Trying to expand it while its sat in the gear reccess means it expands into the gear wall and no further. I guess i could cut it off with a dremel type tool, but anyone got any better ideas?
Thanks! Mark |

Hook one end out with a pick and work your way around. It'll come out in the space you have there. ____________________ a.k.a 'Geri'

Thanks for the replies.
in the end i figured out i needed to move the gear next to this outside gear down by sliding the circlip on the opposite side of that gear (with holes) down the shaft, this meant the gear pictured could also slide down making space to remove the offending clip quite easily... It wasn't possible to remove it from the outside, I'm pretty sure of that!
Phew! just waiting in parts now, poxy gxsr gearboxes...! |

Karma marked appropriately due to shite picture.
This sort of subject demands crisp photos.
The correct tool is a flat heavy duty ring pliers.
These sort of things.

They should have a crosshatched face to prevent the clip slipping. The angled ends of those clips bites into the pliers face then. ____________________ Disclaimer: The comments above may be predicted text and not necessarily the opinion of MCN. |

I just busted the 'This Post is Ambiguous' Karma button for you.
Those could be chips. ____________________ Disclaimer: The comments above may be predicted text and not necessarily the opinion of MCN. |
