That's easy but how can I remove pinion from factory pressed on motor? I tried it once using puller but puller broke. Than I tried blow torch, hammer etc and completely destroyed the motor but pinion still didn't move!
What you did in your video is a big no-no. You are putting a lateral force on your bearings they are not designed to handle. This will damage them and is the reason pullers were invented.
@thybigballs The whole point of the video was to show that you can remove a pinion even if you don't have a puller. If you do it carefully like I did, there won't be any problems. This motor has had several pinion changes using this method and not once was there a problem with the motor's shaft. Sure, it you pry it off in one swift move you're risking damage, but doing it little by little works fine.
Jesus. Talk about stringing it out. I could have said all of that in 30 seconds with enough description for anyone to do it properly. Save some bandwidth and make quick points when filming, please.
You need to use a hex driver. It's like a screw driver but with a hex tip, usually hardened steel. The regular allen wrenches are way too soft. Good luck.
I worry about the axial load this places in the motor bearings. the gear puller solves a multitude of problems.

Is there a way to remove a pinion without grub screw using just common tools (not pinion puller) ?
