No beating required.
You may have picked up a piece of debris that has galled itself between the two parts.
Can you shine a light through to see if you can see anything obstructing the bore?

My thinking as well. Like debris wedged in. Picture coming upJimMinCT wrote: ↑Tue Apr 28, 2020 10:56 am Without seeing the exact setup, I'd recommend a gear puller that will slowly push it back off...

Re: worm stuck on shaft while being removed LXD75
Thank you Gordon. I am aware about that. I had tried to share with the samsung link share feature that's included with my phone, but quickly realized it would fail and replaced them with Google drive images publicly availableGordon wrote: ↑Tue Apr 28, 2020 6:18 pm @StarLord101 This should help you to load images:

Re: worm stuck on shaft while being removed LXD75
Huh...I have it as a publicly viewable link without auth through google drive, and it's still showing me an icon instead. Have you guys had trouble with that? What is everyone else using seeing as I doubt everyone has their own website to host.Gordon wrote: ↑Tue Apr 28, 2020 6:18 pm @StarLord101 This should help you to load images:

Re: worm stuck on shaft while being removed LXD75
Aluminum has a massive expansion coefficient. It might be enough to let them slip by with no further damage.
Something looks to be in there. Is the tip of the lock mechanism in there?

Re: worm stuck on shaft while being removed LXD75
It looks like you are going to have some polishing to do afterwards.
Good luck!

Re: worm stuck on shaft while being removed LXD75
LOL. My thoughts exactly re: polishing. Hell.....I probably need to resurface the damn thing, but then it wouldn't make good contact with the cylinder anymoreLady Fraktor wrote: ↑Tue Apr 28, 2020 8:35 pm Use a heat gun or hair dryer on the ring and use a piece of wood to tap it down to prevent damage.

Re: worm stuck on shaft while being removed LXD75
That is an ingenious idea!!! I mean I had already considered heat, but contrasting that further with ice is a genius idea in theory. When you say "top" and "bottom", which side are you referring to? The cylinder is sliding in the direction of the side with no grooves by the way. I agree, I have a nasty feeling I am going to find some sharp debris or something in there. When you say the tip of the lock mechanism, are you referring to theJimMinCT wrote: ↑Tue Apr 28, 2020 7:36 pm You could try putting the upper portion into hot water for a minute or so while putting ice on the lower section.

Re: worm stuck on shaft while being removed LXD75
I had a small flake of chrome come off a counterweight shaft once and bound the threads up, it required 2 pipe wrenches to lever it apart after.

That is superbly weird, because I swear I'm looking at some kind of joint . I can absolutely say there is some weird casting issues with the metal . Outside body is solid
