05.Banshee.SE Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 These case studs (case to cylinder) are threaded in right? (Instead of pressed.) I need to replace 2 of them. Quote
88bansheebitch Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 Yes threaded.Be careful when pulling them out.They are a bitch.Soak them with wd 40.If you snap them do not use an easy out bit lol.Trust me it won't work.You will have to take them to a machine shop and have them put it on a bridge port machine.

Thanks for the information. They definately are a bitch, that's why I was wondering if they were even threaded in lol. I soaked them 24 hours with some penetrating oil, going to try something stronger than what I used, and maybe some channel locks coupled with a few "rythmic" blows from my mallet. :biggrin: I would double nut them, but they are both damaged...

2001Stroker Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 I've never had a problem taking them out. Never needed penetrating oil neither. That's just me though. You just double-nut them, and screw them out. You have to jamb the nuts together, and unscrew with the bottom nut using an open-ended wrench. Takes just a few minutes. Quote

Because I never got 1 out without heating it. They break off every time, been there. Quote
tschneringer Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 try PB blast it can work miracles Quote
alcoholbanshee Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 try PB blast it can work miracles I use PB blaster, soak it overnight. Then I heat it with a propane torch, and use the double nut method. Since I have been doing it this way, I have not had one stud break. Before I did it this way, I was 50% at best.......LOL Quote

1996dragshee Posted April 8, 2009 Report Posted April 8, 2009 hit with some heat like Roger said and instead of using the doubly nut deal just use vice gribs or a pipe wrench i found works better. I never wanted to use the heat deal cuz i didn't want to warp the cases.Now that i think of it,it would take a whole lot of heat to actually warp them..i found me a new way lol thanks Roger Quote
toolman Posted April 9, 2009 Report Posted April 9, 2009 They are installed with red loctite. You have to use heat to get them out. Quote
jbooker82 Posted April 9, 2009 Report Posted April 9, 2009 Plus aluminum and steel heat and cool down (expand and contract) at different speeds. So the heating and cooling process can help brake the coroson loose that causes steel to and aluminum to siez. Quote
