hi everyone, im currently in the process of doing a 5 speed swap on my fc and i was wondering if there was someone in the bay area willing to help me take out the flywheel nut...ive tried taking it off with a extended 3/4 inch drive breaker bar (about 4ft. long) and still no luck...i know a 3/4 inch drive impact gun would work..but unfortunately i dont have one nor can my small air compressor even power it... thanks!!!

 

Try a hammer & a chisel.that usually works,but u will have to replace the nut after its removed...

 

do you have something holding the flywheel in place? and it takes a second with a 3/4 impact gun but your ears WILL ring for 20mins minimum

 

i can help you take it off lol super easy we dont even have to try haha where are you located?

 

Heat the nut with a propane torch, don't heat the shaft or bearing.

 

i would but i dont have an extra flywheel nut to replace with...


yah, its held with a chain and bolt


how do you plan on taking it out?

im going to try that and hopefully it works...wish me luck!!! lol

 

the same way i took mine off snap on cordless impact gun 600lbs ***** to easy son took mine off without even trying lol

 

damn really?!?! how much did that thing cost you..and its a 3/4 drive? i want one of those!!! lol

 

Are you still stuck? I just went to sears and picked up a 3/4 54 mm (2 1/8) and a step down ext. threw it at 110 psi on the gun and brapped it off.
