Dismantling the rear wheel.

[Black Pig]

Right then you tech johnnies, got the rear wheel off (eventually) now I am dismantling it to get it coated.

I have got all of the bolts out but the disc is solid, am I missing something or is it corroded in?

Similarly I have all the bolts out of the wheel boss spacer thing and it won't come out same thing?

I have checked the drawings and I have removed all of the items I am meant to.....

Well miffed! :dontknow:

I am a little uncertain with what you are having a problem with. The drive for the belt (I am pretty sure) just pulls right off. This may help too:

Just pulls apart, no bolts holding that part.

The brake rotor needs a lot of playing with to get off. You have to rock is back and forth and walk it up a little at a time.

Or. Use a puller. The compensator bowl that holds the drive pulley is tight, but will come off. Use a bearing puller on the wheel bearings. Remove tire, valve stem, wheel weights. Comes right apart.

Great stuff, thanks for that, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything after the 5 disc securing bolts have been whipped out, I am assuming this is the case for removing the hub too, as I have the nuts and bolts off, but the bugger is still solid...

This corrosion is turning a simple job into an epic quest!!
