williamjernigan Posted May 11, 2005 Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 I got the cluthbasket off and the primary gear. Now I pulled out the shift shaft enough to get to the shift star. Do I have to take anything else off in order to get the shift star off. I tried loosening the phillips head bolt that holds it but it turns so I tried using a vice grip to hold it but I still cant loosen it. Any suggestions.

MDS2106 Posted May 11, 2005 Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 (edited) push the shift shaft back in and put it in gear then try it again,if the screw doesn't want to turn you can use a impact screwdriver to loosen it Edited May 11, 2005 by MDS2106 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williamjernigan Posted May 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 Yeah but if I do that then I want be able to get to the phillips head bolts. Do I take the one in the center of the shift star off or the ones to the right off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDS2106 Posted May 11, 2005 Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 (edited) it is the screw in the middle of the star,pull the shift shaft back out some and try a impact screwdriver Edited May 11, 2005 by MDS2106 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williamjernigan Posted May 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 After I took that out I still was unable to take it off. Does it slide off. I tried pulling on it but the shaft to the transmission was moving with it. Is it threaded on the transmision shaft. If so then is it lefty loosy right tighty. Do I need to take something else off in order to get it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted May 11, 2005 Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 The lever that's resting on it needs to be lifted. You can do this very easily with a screwdriver...there's not a ton of pressure on it. Lift, remove. Reinstall in reverse order. Just put mine in last Friday...was a snap! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williamjernigan Posted May 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 Ok I must be brain dead because I still cant get it. Are you talking about the lever or (shift drum stopper) that is under the shift star. I just don't understand how it comes off. I don't want to pull to hard on anything because Im scared to break it.

dajogejr Posted May 11, 2005 Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 I've only done this once...and it was easy. However...I didn't pay that much attention to detail, it just went. Someone will be along shortly that has probably done this a ton of times. Also...do you have a Clymers manual? Invaluable... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williamjernigan Posted May 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 Yeah I do have my clymers but I think its one of those days where I coudn't spell my own name. I think we all had those days. Ill get it by tonight but I just wanted to get it done today before I go to work so I could send it off.

williamjernigan Posted May 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 I got it. I just had to stop being such a pussy and pop it off of the shaft. That was simple enough. Thanks guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted May 11, 2005 Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 Make sure you don't lose that little steel dowel/pin. Need that to line it back up....only one way off, one way on!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
