J-Madd Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 If you hold the piston and run a 10 mm or whatever deep well socket In there and gently tap it it comes right out. Holding the piston will keep the rod from moving much. I've done this 50 times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaN Powersports Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 Never drive wristpin out! The loading/blows can crack lower needle cages, and the rollers mar the big end of the rod. Pin puller-one of these times you won't 'get away' with driving the pin out And don't stick items in the rod's little end to hold them-similar stresses to the lower cages, not to mention marring the little end. An impact wrench is just fine on the retaining nut on the bench. But in the case it's best to hold the flywheel so the 'blows' of the impact don't get transferred through to the bearings-(same effect as 'knocking the wrist pin out) Again, don't hold it by the rods for this either I have a ton of gears, and can build up/weld your crank, no problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
