steering worm gear removal on 41 ford
finally getting to my 41 ford project and I took steering box apart. bearings fell out in pieces, races destroyed. Have another ford gear box, probably a 38 or 39, with different length shaft but same components. I want to remove the worm gears. Is that possible? I understand they are keyed and have a press fit. Anybody hear ever remove one and have any suggestions? I cant see any keyway and all I can presume is that u heat the gear up and wack the bejesus out of it.

.....You'll need a proper press to push it off, they're extremely tight...see pics here: http://www.nz-hotrod.com/vbulletin/s...rive-1932-Ford scroll down the page to see relevant pics..

If you can't get the worm off....or the shaft gets bent/damaged in the process, we have new shafts with the worm already pressed on.
