Rear wheel spacers on mc16

**Sun Mar 08, 2015 8:08 pm » Post: #1 » Download Post**

Hi guys,
Can anyone tell me if the spacers should just drop out when the wheel is removed.
The spindle nut was really tight, and when I eventually got it all in bits the spacers seem to be stuck in.
I have pulled the sprocket carrier off and the spacer behind will turn but not pull off,I don't want to damage anything but maybe it needs drifting out?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Daz

The spacers press into the bearings on the NSR rear wheels. Only the fronts are "floating".

Here's an example, showing an MC21SP cush drive, with a spacer still in place.

Thanks Andy,
What's the best way to remove them?
Can I drift them out like the bearings or do I need a bespoke puller?
Maybe a rag over them and pull out with grips though I obviously don't want to damage the surface.
Cheers

Just carefully drift them out. Not uncommon to have to clean them up a bit after... especially aftermarket alloy ones.
