HELP!! - BB and Spindle

(1/2) > >>

Cotty:
Need some help folks.  any suggestions on how to get a spindle of my BB that is well and truly wedged??

Not gone for the big old belt with a hammer yet!!


Cheers
Cotty

darkersomeday:
what cranks are they?

Cotty:
new twin pinch redlines.

MartyC:
The spindle is wedged in the bearings?  Pour hot/boiling water on the bearings and gently tap the spindle with a wooden or rubber mallet to remove.  The water will cause the bearing race to expand slightly  :daumenhoch:

Cotty:
Nice one!! :daumenhoch:

I'll give it a whirl in the morning!


cheers
