yeap, i fear case splitting day too but at the same time i await.

i imagine hes totally mangled about everything from cable connection down on through the only way to get into it is to well. get into it.

 

the case splitting faw is a good start.

Just wondering if I would be better off doing it in frame or not. i dont have a stand.

[RIPRuck]

Take it out of the frame.. You dont need a stand! Here, look what I just finished building my motor on!

Am I going to have to replace all the seal and what not if i split the cases? i am a low budget builder. not a cheap ass but if I dont have to fuck it up I wont! Kinda sounds like my season ended today.

i can tear a whole engine apart and put it back together in about 3 hours. if you at least get the rod out of there you can have a new rod, ball and pancake bearing on order.

I would replace the seals if it were me. Might save you from splitting the cases again due to an air leak.

Thanks for the input guys! I am still tryin at it from the top I dont want to split the cases. I just got back with 2 36" prybars. I will let you know the outcome.

[kawiking]

i dont let anyone ride my bikes unless they know how to work on them or have the cash to fix them , thats it !!!!

[Bansh-eman]

becareful what your prying on, a quick fix could turn into a new basket really fast if you slip and bust that thing

[TexasBansheeMan]

I am far away from the basket all i have left is the Long rod and the pull lever on top of the case. I am trying to unjam the lever. the long rod has mushroomed from what i can tell. i have bout a 1/4 inch movement in the lever and bout an 1/8 in the long rod. The ball and short rod adjuster havr been removed.

[locogato11283]

might as well just forget it. youre gonna have to split the case im betting.

Dude give it up....split the cases!!!!! I cannot think of any application on a Banshee that would require a 36" prybay......Let alone 2 of them. If you don't stop now you will screw something up. Just split the cases and be done with it!!!! It really is not hard. As mentioned above, it can be done in very short order.

[TexasBansheeMan]

Ok Ok after a few trys and not much luck I am going to try to split the cases. BUT IN EVERY TEARDOWN i have read all the linkage must be removed first. I am going to try tomorrow but I still have doughts seing how the linkage that goes through the top of the case is stuck from underneith. But thanks for all the info my fears have turned more to sadness and the sadness to pain MY BABY IS HURT!! she has many good seasons and never left me stranded. she is a 2001 and she has had. 2 topends <-not needed just done, 2 clutches,10 rear tires, and umteen oil changes thats it! I dont wanna do open heart on her but tomorrow she goes in the shed for surgery. :ermm:
