Im stumped on this one. I was doing well all by myself and now i cant figure out how to take the drive sproket out. Do i have to open up the chain case?

Need help ASAP

 

[snofrog]

chaincase cover & bottom gear come out also a locking collar on left side and its out

 

[someone11]

Sweetness. thanks. One last question, when i take the cover off will oil spill everywhere?

 

[someone11]

Oh, im assuming the drive sproket is the thing that drives the track that is closest to the front of the tunnel towards the top. (it has teeth)

yes . unless you have , find , and remove the drain plug for the chaincase

 

[someone11]

OK, thanks for your help, looks like im heading back out

 

[someone11]

OK, that didnt work or im doing it wrong. Ive got the chaincase cover off and the gear.. Now what? Does its just push through?

on the other side(left side if you are sitting on it) there should be three or 4 bolts holding the sprocket drive bar in, take those out and push the sprocket towards the right side and it will allow you to tilt and pull it out. you didnt really mention which sled.....(unless you mean the 80 citation?!)

actually you don even mention what you are doing, changing the track is what i assumed...

 

[someone11]

Yes it is the 80 citation which has right side chaincase. (if youre sitting on the sled). And yes i am changinf the track/ doing suspension maintenence.

under where the gear was do you see 3 nuts ? remove them and pull plate off . you should now see the bearing . if you have loosend the retainer on the left everything should shift to the chaincase side and then drop down the shaft on the left and slide it out . sorry to leave you hanging ... I just got back from a bike ride

I did a track swap on my yamaha this spring and this is how it went. Remove speedometer drive cover, look on the inside of the tunnel on left side and loosen the two set screws on the bearing collar. Remove the chaincase cover bottom sprocket and then the inside cover. The drive axle just slid right out for me then. I took it to the right and then tilted it down and out to the left. I don't know how similar this is to your citation but I wouldn't think that they'd be that different. Should be similar anyways.

Hope that helps.

if you have no other use for the track that is on there why not just cut it off so you can see in there that much better

 

[someone11]

Ok ,so the track is out, but, i couldnt get the drive sprocket out. I did get it to shift right but then it wouldnt pull out. It seems like theres a bearing on the chaincase side thats keeping it in.

 

[snofrog]

how about a snapring on the chaincase bearing ?

 

[someone11]

I know i had to take one out to get the gear off, is ther another one?

 

[snofrog]

I dont know ? I`m not there :whistling:

lol. If someone knows of a parts diagram for a sled that old on the internet then we could probably help more.
