Is this the NORMAL amount of stud showing?


I can't tell you if that is in correctly or not -- specifically depth wise.

Several years ago I know while my mech and I were installing a LNE kit
we (probably me :-) got it a tad cockeyed. and it would not insert completely.
Tight access had me strike it at little off kilter.

We fashioned up a puller with a piece that would fit the LNE bolt.
It came out easily and we were able to reinstall with no issues.

I'm sure a machine shop could fashion you up such a piece if
you have the specs of the LNE bolt and the bolt on the end of the puller.

Note this is the original extraction/insertion tool -- I believe the methods
have changed. My mechanic was one of the early indy's to perform the service.
So I don't know if the newer tools are the same or not.
