Killer, when I started racing HobbyTown San Marcos was my first track. I've been down to DHW's track once, want to come again in the near future.

Thanks in advance

I am referring to this step.

1)What does the instruction meant by 'remove' for derlin direct cup (BL9)?

2)I want to disassemble the spool and having difficulty removing the aluminum coupling (BL10) to start with.

Any help is much appreciated. thanks

To disassemble the spool, you just need to pinch the end of the outdrive (BL9) with pliers and slip the aluminum sleeve (BL10) off the end.

Thanks for the response Randy.

I am damaging the plastic outdrives (BL) and scratching the aluminum sleeve (BL10) with the pliers and not getting any results.

It's tough, but just keep at it and I'm sure you can get them off.

Well I have a setup posted on teamtrf.com for BCR, it's for the original 416 but should transfer fine to the new car if you end up going there.

I use a same size bearing to compress the plastic outdrives then I push the alloy sleeve with bearing the same time using a long nose pliers or body scissors. I find this method works best for me.

Another option is to take you pliars, place them between the spool pulley and the bearing, and then lever against the bearing. With the bearing resting against the outdrive cover, should pop the cover off.

Hold the spool on a 45 Degree angle.
Press down (on a hard surface) to one side of the delrin drive output piece while holding (and pressing down on) the aluminum ring.
Once the "Half" has pressed past the lip, It comes right off.
No harm... No Foul !
