Hi all,
I‘m currently having my gearbox rebuilt. The cones are worn as described above and the plan is to replace them.
Since there‘s no surface to push/pull the cone off the gear it‘s not obvious to me how these can be separated without damage.
The only way I can think of is to use a bearing separator like this:
However, I‘m afraid using this kind of separator will cause the small teeth of the cone to crack.
A: gear
B: cone
C: separator
Is there a different procedure?
Or, do I have to machine features (e.g. threaded holes) into the cone to safely separate it?
Thanks and best regards
Philipp
