Glad to be a part of this site, I have 4 cadets, 1 July '61 Original, early 100, 104 and a 125. I have a 125 hydro question. I have the hydro apart as I was needing to reseal all shafts and replace cork gasket, the book mention to remove spring pins in trunion shafts sufficiently enough to remove shafts, what is the best way to get out pins if I have went too far, or am I screwed.

Thanks for any help.

Welcome to the forum. I have not been inside the hydro to completely answer
your question. I do know that 3 of the four seals are replaceable without
opening up the hydro. The trunnion side is the only one you have to get
in the hydro. I know there are some archived stuff here dealing with the
pins you are referring to. I will look for them when I have time. Hopefully
someone will come along here that has been inside.

Thank You, any help is appreciated.

Welcome to OCC......... :Welcome2:

If you drove the coiled pin too far into the swash plate,
Yep your S****ed.
But:
you can carefully drill a hole in the case and continue driving the pin out the hole.
Then thread the hole with a pipe tap and install a pipe plug.
Not recommended but it saves the case and yer ass. Ha,LOL!:beerchug:

Might be a little late if you are in too deep but here is a video I ran across
a while back. Pretty informative.

Thanks for the reply, I figured I was screwed but thought I would see if there was a magical way to get them out, guess I will chalk it up to a lesson learned the hard way.

Bolt instead of spirol pins in the coupler.....hmm

These pins are located inside the hydrostat.
