Front axle.....success at last.....

[Bob Carriere]

.... are truly knowledgable about "balls"..... if you pardon the expression.....

Now tell me.... how do you dismantle the greasy little suckers.

I have managed to figer out that the wired retaining screws come out releasing a snap ring...... and I have managed to remove the set screw front the axle cavity..... then what????/

Mind you the one I am learning on may be rusted..... according to the diagrams .. behind that set screw should be a plunger and spring of some sort that holds a cap inside the cup with a central nipple..... here we go again....pardon the expression.....

I have tried rotating the inner cup enough to release the ballbearings (no excuse) from the race but can't seem to turn enough without removing or releasing that cap inside.....

Pray tell... what is the secret oh wise one of circular objects???
