    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Mystery tool......(mystery to me anyway!)

Part is NLA per the catalogue.
I would buy one just in case.

used for GS 650, 850, 1000 and 1100
What for would be found in the FSM for one of these models.

Not sure is all these were shafties but if so then its probably for the driveline.
 
I am so bored I am dloading the manual for a 650g just to find out.
 
It is used to dis-assemble the output shaft.
pg 110 of the 650g manual.
 
Just entered the part number as a "find" in my 650G, 850G and 1000G manuals, nothing found.

Are your manuals OCR scans with the ability to search editable text?
It is on pg 110 of the 650 g manual.
I imagine the tool would only be useful if you needed to rebuild rather than replace with a used part.

I convert my manuals to editable test using Adobe
Expensive program but worth it.
 
My manuals were downloaded from BassCliff' site, not sure exactly how they were scanned, or by whom.

I would like to use Adobe, but the only one I can afford is the FREE reader. :-\\\

RustyJeep is correct sir! I made one to allow me to change the seal on that shaft. I modeled it after a photo of the suzi tool...this one.

In order to replace the seal between the oil and gear oil compartments you must remove the cam dog asssembley. This tool threads into the end of the trasmission output shaft then by turning the bolt it would compress the spring allowing one to remove the two keepers (that are set up just like the valve keepers in the top end). After removing these parts it would be possible to remove the old seal and install a new one, then replace the spring and cam dog

Does it screw in the cam shaft to stop it from turning while working on it??
 
Hmmm I have been messing about with Omnipage and these pdf do OCR quite well,

Oddly Acrobat is not as good a tool for OCR

Now to download em all and process them for the good of humanity.

There is an app for cleaning up the ghost image from the opposite side of the page. Does anyone know what the name of that app is?

Nope !! Vise grips are the tool for that

Yes it does thread into the countershaft, you'll notice the smaller threads leading the larger ones. The whole shaft would spin though w/o vise grips or a bench vise or something to hold it steady while working on it.

Made mine with a piece of 6x1.5mm(?) threaded rod, some stout washers, threaded rod coupling for press nut (to keep the threads from pulling off) and a 1" galvanized pipe coupling which I cut reliefs in to allow access to the keepers.

A hard lesson I learned: for anyone attempting this repair is to make sure the gears on the other end of the shaft are correctly indexed to the keyed retainers upon relieving spring pressure.
