yea, i got a gear puller and got them off, what would be a really good way to clean it up and get it ready for painting. it is covered in oil and dirt.
you shouldnt of needed a puller, mine came off with my two hands
I don't know I pulled on it and did not come off, so instead of working really hard to get it off, I just got a puller and they came off easy. work smarter not harder.
i've needed a puller for most of my stuff. thats normal
...
ok well maybe i made a puller, put a screw driver between the straps and pull
are you completely disassembling it before painting, etc? if so its cheap to have it vatted @ vilas. otherwise, i'd say use some engine degreaser and a wire brush to knock the big stuff off, then a wire wheel on a grinder to finish the tough cleaning. if you spray it off w/ brake cleaner and wipe it down good before painting the paint will last longer.
what is vatted, is that where they dip it in something to clean it. and how much does it cost
they dip it in a caustic (Ph~13) solution thats kept ~165*. cleans the sh!t outta just about anything. when they pull it outta there it gets jet washed and hosed down. i wouldnt recommend doing it if you're not going to take it apart tho, risk not getting it all out. if all you want is to have it dipped and cleaned it'd probably run about $40.
washed mine with a pressure washer and brake cleaner.

have vilas dip it if you're tearing it ALL the way down, otherwise hit it with a wire wheel and brake cleaner and call it good.
how far down would I have to tear it for vila's to do it.
you know what, put the yokes back on it and just ship it to me. It's easier that way.

this would be good enough....just so the vat juice cant get trapped in. you could take that front extension off too, but i'd be leery of getting that far into it if you've never messed w/ the insides of one before.
