Posted: 14:32 - 22 May 2017 Post subject: Kawasaki AR50 Crankshaft Nut |
|
|
I've been working on stripping my little Kawasaki AR50 that I used to ride at 16, with the aim of renewing engine crankcase seals.
Have followed Mr Haynes instructions, but have now got a point where I'm a bit stumped because I can't remove the crankshaft nut (circled). The bits of wood under my extension bar are dented and sound like they are about to snap in two.
The diagram in the Haynes manual is a bit different with circlip / pinion damper rather than just a nut.
Could it be a LH thread?
I don't have an impact gun, but this was suggested by a colleague..
Any further suggestions on what do?

+1 for a pov-spec impact gun, mains if you can get one cheaper. Spending more just because you've got the batteries for it is a peculiar choice.
It'll have that nut off in half a second versus hours of struggling and straining. It'll be the best and worst value tool you'll ever buy. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

This is what I recently used to get the front sprocket off a Z1000SX. After heaving on a 2ft breaker bar with a 6ft piece of scaffold to absolutely no avail.....came right off with this. Much happy.

Hefty piece of kit, feels more like a decent beefy SDS or a demo drill. And it spits out more torque than your cordless affair. ____________________ Current bikes: '08 VFR 800 VTEC(yo) , '07 ZZR1400 Winter hack: '95 Aprilia 650 Pegaso Currently lusting after: RC30 |
