hello,
wonder if anyone could help .how can i remove the kickstart shaft bush, on my laydown gearbox. ive tried to have a go. i tried a big rawl bolt to pull it, but nothing it didnt budge. i put one leg of my small puller under the bottom ridge of the bush inside, but still couldnt move it. . i havent got a drill big enough to drill it out . cant really see how i can get it out. i have searched but couldnt see anything. but if anyone could guide me with the correct search term. i will research it that way.
many thanks
Barry

Kickstart shaft bush
Hi Barry
What I did was use large thread tap in bush,then put tap in vice,and then use copper hammer on kickstart shaft lightly . Come out a treat.Best way to put new bush in is to heat kickstart shaft a little freeze bush for 30 mins, and use the layshaft as a drift works fine. Barrie

Hi Barry, I have removed a few of these and they have always dropped out with a little heat, no other persuasion required. Maybe I've been lucky!
Regards, Mark.
