Keefyboy is right that it's probably going to be stuck in the pressure plate bearing. If it isn't though, you can get it out from the slave cylinder side by starting to push from the pressure plate side. This way the two little 'o' rings have less distance to travel throught he inside of the shaft and probably have a better chance of not being bu**ered up. Personally, I feel happier reaasembling from the slave cylinder side, not only because of the 'o' rings, but also because I can see that the slave cylider seals are seated properly. I use an Evoluzione slave though. Also, I would be careful lubing the push rod when you put it back. you don't want loads of oil floating around the basket and pressure plate. |
