Thanks for that pic! I also like to make my own tools even when I could buy cheaper.
AndI plan on having a look atmy bearing in the next little while
when I change to a bigger trans pulley.

Seems some have problems, others don't.
Where did you find the bigger trans pulley??
How many teeth??

Mud, that is a beautiful puller, and I am always impressed with your abilitys,
but there is an easier way.
I cut a notch in either side of my race partway out, put moderate heat too it,
and with a two jaw puller in the notches, just pulled her off of there.

I thought about using that technique, but I did not want to apply any heat.
There is a seal and an oRing on that shaft very close by.
Probably overcautious, I like to make tools anyway.

I hear you on the seal nearby. Not that much heat though. The notches I cut in the race were because the two jaw puller wouldn't fit behind the race, so I came out towards the end, and cut a notch on either side that the jaws could grab on. Heat was applied with a handheld butane torch. The kind you would also use with a soldering tip. Very controlled. If that had not have worked, I had already made my mind up to split the race lengthwise with the dremel tool. In other words, cut nearly through the entire length of the race, then use a nut splitter to bust it.

If you're referring to whatI said about 4spd Evo Sportsters in the other thread, I don't know. I'm one of those who would like to see rebates for warranty waved because to me anyway, ain't worth the paper it's printed on. In other words, my piece of mind is priceless.I do my own wrenching, do it right!

You're right about the warranty Tim.
The job is not overly complicated at all, the service manual covers it well.
The other tool I made for this operation is simply a 1/4"x7"x1" chunka flat stock.
Locks the sprockets for removal of the nuts.

with the warranty covering it, may as well have the squealer do it.
You made that puller, huh?

Mud, if the squealer jacks me around with some week or longer repair date, I'm sure I'll be getting ahold of you, as I will be doing it myself. I might even add the Hayden M6 chain tensioner while I have the primary off. Been reading alot about the HD tensioner chittin the bed on folks. Tim

Timmer, Has Hayden got a replacement tensioner for the new style HD type. I haven't seen any yet but will buy one if they have.
Good luck with you problem.

Tim, I could not get the link to work so I went to their site as well asHayden's site and they have nothing listed to fit 06 Dyna and newer.
06 Dyna changed to the auto style but you can't reto fit the old type and that is what Hayden have listed.
I could be wrong and have not noticed a listing for the replacementof the new HD auto tensioner.
