Darek 0 #1 Posted 16 hours ago Need some assistance please! I am trying to replace these pulleys pictured and what happening is once they and the two spacers are put on the shaft there are not enough threads left to put the shroud and nut back on. It looks to me like part of the race from the V pulley is still on the shaft thus taking up space causing my issue. The race is possibly fused to it as it almost looks like its supposed to be that way. What would be the best way to rectify this? TIA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nylyon-(Admin) 9,059 #2 Posted 16 hours ago You are correct that race should not be there, may need to cut it and split it to get it off 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A small amount of penetrating oil on the shaft helps, but keep it away from the area where you grip it. Edited 1 hour ago by ri702bill 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oldlineman 1,803 #5 Posted 2 hours ago Some well placed heat would be my first choice, if not successful, then cutting would be my next choice. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
