Yes that's the extension shaft on the crankshaft pinion....I've removed the 4 bolts on the oil thrower...now on the flange which is part of the shaft theres about 3/4" depth that I can tap a 12mm thread in....then I could get 4×12×130 bolts in with a plate on top so could attach a slide hammer to......any thoughts on this or am I missing something?

The drive gear in the Lister Blackstone box is something like that and usually comes off with a little strategic hammering Let me see if I can find a gear so you can see what's on the back of the flange Richard Edited March 23, 2020 by RLWP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fitted an identical pair and they were fine - genuine Lister, same manufacturer If you are lucky, we will have old stock bearing shells, otherwise it's pot luck Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
