I'm not paying $120 (locally) for something I only need for five seconds. I can't get the auto spigot out of the back of the crank, despite my best efforts (yes, I have tried everything, including an oxy torch). Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

that wont get it out tim, there is only like a .5mm lip if that not enough to grab it, drill and cold chisel it out :P

Dont buy one, I broke 1 in 5 mins trying to get my auto spigot out. as Trev said drill and chisel it out,its what i ened up doing and wish i done it from the start.

I swear I posted a tip in this thread 10 mins ago ffs wtf!

use simple hydrolics man... u can pack it with grease or wet tissue as best u can get something that fits into the center of the bearing tightly but will still fit (use like a steel rod or something) then hit the rod with a hammer and the bearing should pop out (make sure its tight or the grease could squirt out and get ya eyes or some sh*t) hope that helps

that doesnt work either, not enough lip, TUX, u posted in the other thread he made TIM, DO NOT MAKE DUPLICATE THREADS Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

grab a slide hammer from super cheap? u'll use it again only 20 or 30 bucks

I have a similar tool that I bought from bursons I got the spigot bearing out of my ls1 it pretty much destroyed the bearing when I took if out lol you can borrow it if you need...

The bearing is going to be destroyed when I get it out anyway, because it's given me so much grief the piece of **** deserves to die. Have you got a pic of it?

I can get a pic gimme a min I'll see if I can find one. It's alot better than the one in your pic it's got three arms and instead of the slide hammer it has a bolt you wind in so it actually applies alot more force

Oh, that be great Lanks. S'cool Trev; I'm home all day if you want to pop around.

mate i lost hope in the grease method but stay on it for about 5-10 minutes and it WILL come out
