    Triumph after hours seemingly spent grunting and groaning, heat guns, every solvent, oil in the book! Removed the balance wheel, drove out the taper pin. the flanged collar however, wasn't gonna come off, and I did NOT want to break another one. So channel-locks and Tri-Flow spray lube, and more muscle finally got it to budge. More spray, keep slowly turning, now it's FREE spinning!!! Happy dance!![ATTACH=CONFIG]496883[/ATTACH]
