Removing a drive shaft from the gearbox can be challenging, particularly when the retaining clip has seized. Traditional methods, such as using a lever, risk damaging or even cracking the gearbox housing—leading to costly repairs. Furthermore, limited access often prevents the drive shaft from being pulled squarely, increasing the difficulty of extraction.
This specialised tool provides a safe and effective solution. Featuring a hinged claw design, it can be positioned securely behind the drive shaft before being tightened to ensure a firm grip. Once secured, a 5kg slide hammer (not included) attaches via a hook, allowing controlled impact force to be applied for removal.
By ensuring square extraction, this system minimises the risk of damage while the repeated shock action of the slide hammer helps to release the seized retaining clip inside the gearbox. Designed for professional use, this tool is essential for efficient and damage-free drive shaft removal.
This version is supplied without a slide hammer and is ideal for users who already have a compatible 5kg slide hammer from another tool set.
Available with 5kg slide hammer (part number 61080555)
