Final Drive Question

#1

Post by milesoffun »

Hi there - I'm having trouble remembering how to separate the final drive from rear hub housing? I've got the wheel off and the final drive spins freely on the housing but does not lift out. What am I forgetting? This bike got wet but things don't look bad and the moly looks mainly ok. But I want to clean it out and add new moly.

Thanks!

Nevermind - got it off - just needed a bit more tugging when I had it vertical. Some rust visible due to the water - but plan to replace final drive with one from ebay!

Not a bad idea, I did the same once mine made noise as rebuilding is more expensive and they are common on ebay still.
