Now to get the bottom bit off, looks like it just unscrews, suppose that will be solid too.
Thats for tomorrow
Well done. Bit of forward thinking next, make a groove/indent slot or something in the section of the sleeve that you can see when its in, and fit the sleeve with that in a position where you can get a punch drift onto it when it has to come out agian. Plenty of grease when refitting
Just to cheer you up, I had to cut the bearing block off the screwed rod too, as it was seized solid. I cut down one of the right angled corners carefully with the hacksaw, leaving about 1mm to 2mm of ali before exposing the crests of the threads. Then filed away the remainder until the crests of the threads started to show. Then repeated that on the opposite right angle, then carefully prised off the block.
