removing release lever pivot shaft??
According to Clarkes, I need a 8mm x 150mm bolt to remove this. The problem is I can't find this size bolt at my local hardware store. Is there a universal tool that I can rent at my local autoparts store? Any other way of removing this?
Thank you. |

The shaft has a threaded hole in the end. I thread a screw in the hole and use my slide hammer to tap it out. Make sure to have the setscrew taken out before you try to remove the shaft.

I just used the longest bolt I could find at the local Ace store.
It was long enough.

The one I use is only about 4". I screw it in, then clamp onto it with vise grips, and then beat on the vise grips with a hammer. Works like a charm.
