Update on Bulley Tek, re: tapping to break bonds. Removed a steering wheel from a Type II, 75 Westy, yesterday. The shaft is forced to the center of the upper bearing by a tapered metal cage. Tried several standard teks and could not make it budge. Tapped the end of the shaft with a 4 oz ball pein for a minute maybe?? Then was able to use a drift and 30 oz hammer to tap it up and out. Next time I will use 2 minutes tapping before removal. Happy Bullenium, one year early. T.P. Stephens aka Doktor Tim Surveyor, Mechanic, Poet, Philosopher San Juan Island, WA
