Title: The gudgepin at the bottom of the gear lever shaft won't budge...
Post by: Robracer on 08 August 2014, 18:14

Hi, i'm the middle of replacing all the bushes etc on the gear lever mechanism and at the opposite engine bay end. But as my pic below show's, the gudgeon pin on the bottom of the gear lever won't come out! I've tried gas grip's, mole grips with no success.

If you have any idea's to help, i'd very much appreciate it.

Thanks, Rob

Thats a roll pin buddy, support it properly and tap it out.
Think you need three shredded wheat so your not so feeble :grin:

A roll pin.. Ah my mistake! But it's well and truly stuck though. I'll go eat my shreddies lol. And give it another go (y)
