I can not get the Drivers side shaft off my Williams gearbox... the roll pin was hard enuff to removed and once i removed it the shaft will still not budge off the gearbox

Ive tryed taping the shaft with a long chissel and a hammer to try and knock it off... but scared of damaging the gearbox

Im not bothered about the driveshaft... I would be happy to butcher it to save the box

any help will be greatly aprechated :smokin:

Not to sound stupid but you have taken out both roll pins?

Most of the cars i've done have has a roll pin inside a roll pin.

Its been plus gassed and had mucho heat to get the roll pin out... more can't do any harm lol

All the roll pin (both parts) is deffo out... I hate them so much :laugh:

I will remove the boot and continue the same... Im at point of wanting to cut it off lol

remove the inner boot along with 3/4 s of the shaft than
try some sort of PMT setup to push the remaining end off the
gearbox using some reno jacks etc :smokin::smokin:
