Hi all,
Cannot get the pinion gear off the end of the drive axle......copious amounts of Deep Creep penetrant over 3 days, and also heat from a torch to almost red hot.....still won"t come off!!! And in trying to pry it off I've destroyed the plastic washer that sits behind it, so in order to repair both, the pinion gear has to come off!!!
Any other suggestions greatly appreciated.
