Call Jeff at FAST (site sponsor). He can sell you a pancake bearing that will alleviate that problem and give you a walk through on installation.

BigRed350X has a case splitting 'how to'...I will try and find it. With the 'how to' and a manual, you will find that it is not bad at all.

 

EDIT: HERE it is...this should help very much if you need to split the cases to solve the problem...

 

Thanks BigRed350x!! :thumbsup:

THANX MAN :biggrin: :thumbsup: I started Trying to get the Aligenment lever out of the case and no such luck. Its hung up harder tha a $2 buk f@*k in china town! ANY IDEAS i have to get this out before i can split the cases. There is no way it can be this hard!!

1. Dont let neighbors ride your banshee

2. Buy a Clymers Manual

3. Buy a pancake bearing

4. Enjoy the time spent with your machine while splitting the cases and learning what makes a banshee work

 

There is no easy way. Just get'r done so you can go ride again.

ok so I have been hard at it and i still cant get the dajustment lever out of the case. I can get it to come up some than its hung. Is orentation important? It will move just the smallest bit back and forth but when i come up on it It just hangs up. Anyone ever faced this?

 

P.S. I have been at it with.. prybar,hammer,18 nail bar, screwdrivers. I am no puss I got bout a buc ninty five on the hoof so Its GETTN BEAT ON.

[TexasBansheeMan]

Do they make a puller that will mount to a slap hammer? Any one near Houston Have one?

[RIPRuck]

Just split the cases.. you'll see whats going on with that arm cause its prolly mangled. You can still split the cases with it in there and then inspect it.

[locogato11283]

will the clutch arm twist? if so, the rod is probably all fucked up in there and not letting the arm come out. if it wont twist you could have welded the rod to the clutch arm. either way its gonna be a motherfucker gettin it out.
