Yanick New Member Sep 5, 2008 #1 Heya fellas. Am looking to rebuild my IRD unit. I am having problems removing the Aluminium Coolant hose box, from the IRD unit. Is there a trick with taking this off so as to remove and replace the crown wheel, pinion, and bearings ?

We wanna see some piccies Yanick. I too will be undertaking the task in the near future, just picked up a 2nd hand unit, will be swapping it over and keeping my FL as a daily runner. Will only be tackling the front bearing sets not all 7 bearings, the 7th being on the output shaft.
