Are you trying to remove the axle or the carrier?

Probably just rust. I've come across this a few times. I sprayed the fuck out of it with liquid wrench, put the nut that holds the rear hub on so that the axle is not sticking out and tap the nut with a hammer. Just dont hit to hard or you'll fuck up the nut or the end of he axle. Good luck with it

i just heat up the carrier to about 300 and the bearing and axle will fall out with the bearing spacer stuck to the axle .or you can run around with the axle nut backed off a tad tell the bearing spacer breaks loose from the axle .yamaha don't put grease on the spacer you mite need a new one.

im working on removing the carrier. and the problem is the race is on the middle of the axle underneath my carrier, i just talked to a shop and they said usually they press it out. it can either be a big pain in the ass or not a problem. considering mine has been on since 2001 im guessing itll be a big problem haha but i sprayed the sit out of it with pb blaster and wd 40. hopefully it makes it a little less complicated

 

im new to this whole forum thing, and it was awesome you guys replied in time thank you very much for the input.

i also heard heating it up yorself is dangerous you can damage he shaft. i think im gonna let a shop handle this one, i may have a hookup to help me out but so far i can get it done for 80, not too bad

take the two lock nuts off holding the sproket on, take the sproket hub off, take the caliper off and put the hub castle nut on the side you took your sproket off and take a rubber mallet and hit the castle nut until the axle falls out. easy as 3.14

I dont even fuck around anymore i just throw it in a press,i maDE A lil jig and have had some axles take up to 10 tons of pressure,make sure you wood block the bottom for when the axle shoots out

[ionroller]

my press only goes to 5 tons, and I had a axle not come free.

 

Busted the torch out while 5 tons were on it and BANG!!!

 

 

You will know when it comes loose.

Just Great! I'm about to do the same thing on my 99. The carrier bearings are a little sloppy. I bought all the parts now I just need to do the job. I have been putting it off because I'm worried it's gonna be a major PIA. I was hoping to avoid using a press...?

 

Good Luck, let us know how it goes.
