Richard Farrant Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Don't know why he went to the trouble of obtaining 5/16" threaded rod for extractors, the socket head screws securing hub cap are normally used and a stronger thread than the rod. Would not advise using an air wrench to remove socket screws, as the socket is often worn and need a bit of careful handling. Start off with a parallel punch same OD as socket head, give the screw head a sharp hit and it will hopefully free the screw as well as close up a stretched hex socket head so the allen key is a better fit. The guy obviously has not read the EMER as he would know the torques for the planet carrier bolts, another point is that anyone stripping a hub might come across these bolts with spring washers instead of locktabs, this was a Mod and it should be noted the bolt heads were machined down to clear the gears. When refitting use Loctite thead locker. Here endeth today's lesson :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
