f-20 flywheel question

Curt W · Oct 25, 2010

Does anybody know what size the nut is on the crankshaft is? I need to switch flywheels on my f-20 project. A chisel had been used before, but I hate to beat it up anymore. Or if someone can guide me to a replacement.

Don't you have a tape measure? But yeah, I'd use a chisel. A few licks and it should spin right off

3 and 1/2 inches.

you can get axle nut sockets pretty cheap that will work well for removing flywheel nut and wheel nuts etc. Sometimes they come off easy with a chisel, and sometimes it takes a lot of heat and a long piece of pipe on the breaker bar. I've had them both ways. Same thing when you go to pull the flywheel off.Sometimes they pop right off, other times.....not.

I used a axle nut socket to remove mine, a lot cheaper than a regular socket.

Thanks for the responses. I had measured 3-1/2" too, but wanted to be sure. I'll locate a axle nut socket. I've tried to soak it with some penetrating oil. I know it won't give up easy.
