[DML] Re: Angle Drive - A new Angle

["joeyoseppi" <joeyoseppi@xxxxxxxxx>]

Bob,

Thanks for the technical "tip" on how to remove the nut on the angle 
drive. I had picked up one of Houston's new angle drives, (nice 
looking part I must say) and was installing it this afternoon. Very 
easy removal, and reinstallation. Though had to disconnect the tie 
rod to get enough swing room though. Having read your post before my 
angle drive arrived I thought, I would be able to compress that ring 
and get it off. Boy was I wrong, after messing with it for almost 2 
1/2 hours and two hand cuts later, I took the hacksaw to it and used 
the "VideoBob" method. Much easier, then just put the old nut and 
metal ring on, then good to go. I would have paid $20 more just to 
recieve an angle drive preinstalled with the nut. But I'll recommend 
the hacksaw method to anyone else I know who is changing an angle 
drive soon. Thanks for the "technical" tip there Bob. :)
