The reverse thread was only on the bearing cup underneath the sprocket. On the adjusting side, both the lock collar and the bearing cup were right hand thread.
I wish I had known more about bikes. I found out the hard way that once the left crank is off, you can drive the shaft off the right crank and through the hub. I was trying to pull the crank off the shaft.....a lot harder to do.
Supposed to warm up to 0 this weekend so I'll be able to run the compressor and sandblast the frame and accessories.
