Ok, What did everyone use for holding the Trans pulley while wrenching on that 2 1/4" nut. I was able to use a small "C" clamp to get the 2 SHCS out. Do I need a bigger clamp? Will an impact wrench do the trick? Do I need to be thinking farther outside the box?
I hung some weight on the rear brake pedal. Definitely use an impact, my sorry 1/2" air wrench could not do it. I rented a 3/4 electric and problem solved..........
I'd love to do this , but I'm a little dubious about tearing the primary open . Also , it seems to be a huge cost . The pulley , the socket , all the gaskets . What is the over all cost ?
Jason...I'm at around $200 but I'm reusing the prim. cover gasket($30) and I already had sealing bolts in my tool box. But I did have to buy trans. seals. The main reason I'm doing this project is fixing a tras leak.
Sorry for the hijack, ... hope to remove my chain drive so I can install my BDL belt drive ... maybe tomorrow ....
Will start up a new thread with some photos if I get to it ....

p.s. those with '05 and earlier bikes contemplating this ... your socket is a different size (see Georges Garage tool page) ... I think it is 1-7/8" vice 2-1/4" ....

Reason: Realized I don't need the socket ....

I was at around $210 for parts including a baker inner bearing, made my own socket like Hogrida did......
So I made a crappy locking tool, it works, but barely. My problem now is... that nut is stuck. I'm on it with a 4ft. breaker bar and can't get it to budge. I just hit it up with some PB Blaster and I'll try it again in the morning. I'm also gonna grab my old mans compressor and impact.
