The sprocket on the axle? I had a guy take my axle out to put a speedy sleeve on it for me in his shop. The drive motor didn't have to come out. The book shows some special tools, an axle installation tool, a seal installation tool and an axle remover. Got it done with out any of them. Axle remover is just a slide hammer set up that bolts onto the hub. The axle has a nut with a cotter pin through it and the sprocket has keys(3 I think) to hold it on. I think he might have split the chain to get the axle out. Sorry I can't be more help. It was done about 11 years ago but the drive motor didn't have to come out. The book might even say the drive motor has to come out but I know mine never came out. Mine was on the left side though and the motor is more towards the front. I've had to fix the chain adjuster and the book says to take the motor out as well but I just took the E brake disc off for more room. Not much room to get at the chain adjuster on the left side. I've found that if you hear a clicking sound, especially when backing up, you have a loose drive chain and it's hitting the chain case. The 3 5/8" grade 12 bolts for the chain adjuster will break if you try to do any hard digging with a loose chain. I think the fact that a piece of key stock is welded to them makes them break easier. BTDT I made my own bolt assembly using only grade 8 bolts so they might have a little give before snapping off. I think after the chains stretch a few times and are adjusted, they stay pretty good. I haven't had to adjust mine in a long time. Don't tighten them too tight though. Dave
