I just installed an adjustable pump gear for the P7100 and am having concerns.
Off the truck, the interference between the gear and inner hub seemed perfect, I inspected everything and everything looked great.
After installing the gear on the hub, I'm having issues removing the outer gear.
I have removed all 6 Allen bolts plus the smaller timing Allen bolt. Even with a gear puller, this thing is having troubles coming off.
There is no bind on the gear, as I can bar the engine over fine. I attempted removing the gear with a puller since it seemed too tight. Even then the interfecerence seemed to be too much. I started seeing metal from the threads where the bolts for the puller go into. So o called it a night.
Is this at all normal?
I've reached out to the business (not mentioning names) and no one is working today to give me a solid answer since they havent seen this. So I'm left to wait.
What does every one think?
