| Post subject: | Pilot Bushing Removal |
I am putting a new clutch in my 80 Aspen Wagon and I figured while I had everything apart I'd put a new pilot bushing in the crank. My problem is that the only inside puller I can find locally which is small enough comes in a $150 (and low quality "Made in China" to boot) slide hammer set. One parts store employee suggested splitting the old bushing with a cold chisel, but I really don't think that's a good idea is it? Are there any alternate methods to removing this bushing or do I have to locate a small inside jaw type puller? |

Pack the end of the crank with grease, Then install a rod that just fits inside the pilot bearing, and smack the rod with a hammer. The rod displaces the grease and pushes the pilot bearing out.
