Mk2 Big Un - 20mm axle help!

[trailstar82]

Hey y’all,

Has anyone successfully separated a mk2 big un front axle? The type that is in two parts and screws in?

There is no way to get any torque on either side, so far I’ve tried clamping it in two blocks with an axle inside to avoid deforming the spacers and tried to twist the other side with a oil pump wrench (the rubber type).

Is there another way of doing this?

Actually scrub that, I’ve been a bit silly

Ah that works. I thought you were struggling with the QR version. My 20mm end caps come off fairly easily.
Also, nice bombers on the floor. The Big 'Un will go nicely with those.
