Moto Iron Mainshaft Sprocket/Pulley Socket Tool for Harley-Davidson

Moto Iron Transmission Main Shaft Sprocket/Pulley Socket Tool for Harley-Davidson

If you need to change your pulley or sprocket, remove it for service, swap a drive belt, are converting to chain drive, or have any other reason to remove the trans end of the final drive, there are wrong tools and right tools for the job. This is the right tool.

• Choice of size
• Pilot tool included
• 1/2" drive
• No lead-in chamfer
• Two tools cover nearly every Harley-Davidson

The wrongest way to remove a trans sprocket is probably the chisel method, which damages parts and is pretty uncontrollable. The next-wrongest way is to buy a standard socket, split it on a bandsaw, and weld in a tubular extension. This tool beats both methods for two reasons. 

First, there's no chamfer on the socket mouth. This is critical for not rounding the thin, thin nuts that are usually held in place with greater than 100 lbs-ft of torque. Unlike a standard socket, the flat-cut end allows the socket's walls to make complete contact. With so little surface area, every bit counts.

The second advantage to this tool is relevant to Big Twin owners: the pilot. The pilot screws onto the mainshaft by hand. It's closely fit to the inside of the socket, helping you stay straight on the sprocket nut. Extended sockets with no pilot make it exceptionally easy to cock sideways, especially when torque is really being applied. One slip can mean damage or injury.

Do the job correctly with the right tool and see how easy the job becomes!
