oldschoolhuffy Posted February 21, 2011 Report Posted February 21, 2011 ok so i have been trying to split the case on my motor and cant get them apart i know i have all the nuts and bolts out ive checked a thousand times. i rebuilt the top end rode it for about 5 hour next thing i know some locked up in the bottom end, it will run in neutral also in gear with the clutch pulled in as soon as i let it out it stalls right away. but anyway i drained the bottom end and not that much gear oil came out and when i rebuilt it i didnt put that much in, i checked it right after i put it in and read fine on the dipstick (i think i should have ran it for a sec then checked it but got excited and didnt think about it ). so anyway my question is do you guys think there is any chance that something could be welded down there stopping me from spilting them?

dirtydownunder Posted February 21, 2011 Report Posted February 21, 2011 hey, have you got the bearing support bracket screw out ? , its behind the basket, the bracket is a semi circle thats half goes around the trans shaft bearing. one screw goes to the top case and the other to the bottom, just undo one. the stator also bolts the 2 halfs together.

camatv Posted February 21, 2011 Report Posted February 21, 2011 YIKES!! i know i go around and TIG weld cases together at random!! Quote

Burt Reynolds Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 Thanks man thats what i was looking for Rubber mallet!! bang bang bang Quote
sleeper06 Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 there has also been plenty of times i thought wtf kind of glue did i use cause it wasreal hard on a few sets to get apaRT Quote
crash&burn Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 I don't know if this a good idea or not but if you got all your nuts bolts out you could take a little propane torch and heat the the places where to two cases meet.... aluminum expands and contracts 10x's quicker than steel does and that should break any corrosive seal or glue.... it dont take alot of heat just a little used to do it aluminum heads with bolts stuck in them and the bolts would just come right out ofter that..... and i'm not sure on the 10x's thing but i do know it does contract and expand quite quickly with very little heat Quote
oldschoolhuffy Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Posted March 2, 2011 Rubber mallet!! bang bang bang lol i tryed that plenty of times already ill take another stab at it this weekend thanks guys!! Quote
700vflash Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 If it locked up then possibly something is jammed and pinching or holding the cases together, may need new cases. Quote
camatv Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 your shits broke.. sledge hammer... i'd be curious what has blown up so bad that the cases wont come apart Quote
Larry's Shee Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 Rig something up to hold it by front and rear motormount and smack the clutch and output shaft with a dead blow. Don't whack the crank. Quote
dirtydownunder Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 make a mount to bolt to the base studs, and a mount to bolt to the trans drain plug , two ropes, two truck, 1 - 2 - 3......... Quote
AKheathen Posted March 4, 2011 Report Posted March 4, 2011 use the studs by the crank as something to brage the pressure against, then apply, or have someone apply downward pressure on the bottom half, then work it with the mallet/dead-blow Quote
