How do you remove the clutch actuator arm from the mandrel pin with out breaking it?
Back in the day, i remember a tool called a "pickle fork" that was used to separate automotive ball joints from the steering linkage and Pittman arm (yes, I know i just dated my self as a super gray beard) It was a much larger tool, I know but does any one know of a similar tool for smaller jobs?
Ride em like ya stole em!

LOL... I still have two of them, one for a pitman arm and the outer for the ball joints. They are still loaner tools from Advance, and Auto Zone.

Oh I'd be very cautious using a pickle fork type deal on that... if it was a tough one u might wipe out the cover piece!

Maybe some wood shim stock under it to take up the shock, and wack it EASILY to see if it might come loose, first...

Good luck
