don't think you can break anything unless you go crazy with a hammer. Whoever designed that thing didn't want it to break. Anyway, if you are looking at the AA catalog? The parts coinciding with the shaft # 11 are one assembly. In other words all of these are assembled onto the shaft. The shaft is in turn inserted into the planetary hub assembly #19. The problem is that everything is close tolerance. So, any rust, crud, etc. will hang it up. A moderate use of force is required. Especially if it has'nt been removed for thirty years. Think about it though. the amount of force and stress involved demands that it be mounted securely. So, I don't see any way out of complete disassembly for a unit that has been attached for that amoun of time. I must have sweated over that thing for about 12 hours. Once I got it apart I realized it was'nt really all that bad. Just different. More like a piece of a lathe or such. In my case there had been water in it so the needle bearings were glued together and the planetary gears were hung. ( still soaking). I sat looking at it with a crow bar and a hammer. Then I would think about Merl and his message. That really saved it. It is a very logical assembly when you break it down. Good Luck. -----Original Message-----

This resides inside the planetary assembly in front of the ODshaft. Before you can get to it you will have to remove the special (square)ever publish a maintenance manual for these ODs? They must be very reliablenot completely disassemble this thing without him here. That way if something |
