'06 Uly, replacing the stator. Managed to get the Engine sprocket Nut off... but can't get the sprocket off. SM says to use the 2 leg puller (from HD) and 'some bolts' in the slots. I don't have that tool, but do have a puller that would work.... if I could find the bolts that would fit.

My assumption is that the bolts would be used to screw into the sprocket where the 8 holes are (the back side of where its mounted to the housing around the stator). I've tried every size I can find.. and nothing seems fits. The SM says the bolts that are in the other side of the holes are 1/4-20.... same size (except length) as the primary cover... they are way to big?

Sooo,I must be wrong...what am I missing?
Or what is the trick.. it seems to be on there really good considering the nut is off??

it will be hard to get off. u can use ur hands. thats all i use. the magnets are pretty strong. so just get ur fingers behind it some and pull.
itll be harde putting it back on because itll wont to pinch ur fingers against the block. but its no biggy.

I did finally get it off. Had to have a friend come over with an extra set of hands... jury rigged a puller that would work with what we had... had to use the puller to get it almost all the way off.

Once off we noticed some residue of some kind on the spindle... looks like that is what was binding it up. Once that was cleaned up the sprocket slides on and off like its supposed to with just the expected magnetic pull.
