Stealth Tranny and Brushless?

[Lowgear]

So let me get this straight. To use a B4/T4 slipper on the RPM trans you buy this http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320597908211 and switch the gears between topshafts?

Yup, you can press off the gear, and re seat the other gear-

I was thinking of freezing spray (duster can upside-down) on the shaft, and some heat on the gear (a la butane torch/heat gun) to try to help get the gear off? Or does that method only work if one has dry ice?

I've never done something like that before!

Nice, I'll have to try it. Now like Group B asked whats the best method of doing so?

[slow_jun]

This is something i would like to see the end result.

Me too!

I believe if you the right stuff and patience and also the skills, this would look like a piece of cake, but for me i think it would be difficult.

I suppose how I would try it is to buy one of the many gear pullers off of eBay. If the gear wouldn't come off with the puller alone I might gently heat the gear with a butane torch. Then to press it on the new shaft I would start it by hand and then use the vise and a hammer. I would open the vise jaws just enough to let the shaft through but not the gear. I would then spray some WD-40 or equivalent on the shaft and gently tap it with the hammer until it went through the gear to where it needed to be.

Lowgear,

Will be ready to buy one from you when yours is done .

[jwscab]

all you should need is a vice, and some small sockets and round stock to push in the appropriate areas, and just press the gear off one, then press the gear onto the new shaft.....
