Thats A LOT of torque. anyone remove a 5 speed transmission without doing this? I just finished my morning coffee and am about to get started. Thanks again everyone! Keep the info coming!
Agreed removing the axles totally from the hubs is not needed. Collapsing the shaft to the outside will give you all the clearance you need.
