Removing / Installing the Transfer Valve
The transfer valve is staked into place and it is steel into alloy which is always problematic. 1)
If you do remove/replace the valve, make sure it is staked back in place when you finish. Use some Loctite on the threads also.
- You can use a hammer and punch to stake mark out of the valve slot. Be careful when hammering on your cases. 2)
- You can find a socket that same size as the OD of the valve. 3) Lay it on the valve & give it some face hammer shots. Again, be careful.
Or get 2 hammers, 2 drifts, 2 guys, one for each slot. Get in rhythm so both hit at same time.
You don't want to brutal. It will break loose if you repeat 2&3. Be careful not to mash the valve into the case. That would re-stake the valve. Again, be careful.
