Unless I missed something, the service manual doesn't actually say how to remove the overdrive tail shaft. It shows the housing being taken off, then the shaft is somehow off too! What holds it there? Is it just the ring gear and is there a trick for getting it loose?


There is nothing holding it although yours may be gummed up a bit. It should just pull off towards the rear.
Some of the free wheel cam rollers will fall out when the rear mainsheet and ring gear assembly is removed.
You will then be able to access the freewheel cam and planetary gears for removal using your new snap ring tool.
