Ok guys so i was gettin ready to rip apart my axle carrier to change bearings and put in the banshee axle and HOLY f*ck is this thing a biotch.
The 2" axle nuts were a pain in the ass but got them off.
Now im at the sprocket hub, apparently its supposed to slide off but its not its damn near welded on there, any ideas?
im not worried about anything but the sprocket hub and the carrier so pounding on the axle is ok but it just wont budge?

Heat, PB blaster, and a rubber mallet. If it doesnt budge, take a sludge hammer to it. If you mess it up, ill send you a sprocket hub and sprocket for free. Just pay shipping!
 
i always heat and cool with pb blaster doing this will pull the blaster in. do it a few times it should work. dont use a BFH unless all else fails
 
Alright Well no luck, i Started of small, a little heat and a rubber mallet nothing.
So i heated it up a little longer and smacked it somemore. still nothing.
so i heated the hell out of it and busted out the BFH and this is what it looks like now

So blasterboy message me your Paypal address and ill pay ya to ship that hub out priority.
Also anyone got a axle carrier because im gonna throw this whole rear end in the garbage
 
lmao you got owned pretty bad by that sprocket hub, and i thought stripped screws f*cked up my life.....that thing MUST be welded, almost like my oil drain screw, had to take a chisel to it, and even like that i spent like an hour hitting that biotch
 
haha ya i was gettin mad, i had bent one and then i was liek f*ck this thing and just started wackin on it.
im gonna bring my grinder home from work tomorrow and try to cut that thing off just to salvage the carrier.
And blaster boy, i sure hope i wasent pounding it the wrong way lol?

Well what kind of axle is that? Correct me if im wrong, its been a while with a blaster, but should the axle first slide out of the carrier and then the sprocket hub come off reversed of what you were beating the sh*t out of? :-/
