Can't remove outer primary
Okay went to remove my outer primary today on my 1983 FXR to replace Bendix gear and it looks like the starter jackshaft it's stuck in the needle bearing on the outer primary. Has anyone ever had this happen and any tips on how to remove it tried tapping with a rubber mallet where the little housing is on the outer primary but that didn't work. Don't want to pull too hard afraid of messing up the jackshaft or something else any help would be greatly Appreciated.

I don't seem to be able to remove the pivot shaft without first having outer primary off I'm trying to give you a picture to work with. It says nothing in the factory manual about having to remove the pivot shaft to get the outer primary off it just says remove primary case

This is not the "factory manual" way of doing it...it is a "work around" because the jackshaft is stuck in the bearing.
