Bushing Removal Device

摘要

A bushing removal device for removing a pilot bushing from a crankshaft cavity includes a casing defining a threaded bore extending into the casing. A grease fitting is coupled to an outer wall of the casing and configured to receive an infusion of grease. The casing includes a grease channel in communication with the grease fitting and with a grease channel outlet situated at the threaded bore. A nozzle includes opposed proximal and distal ends, the proximal end having a threaded configuration received into the casing threaded bore. The nozzle includes a grease conduit having a grease conduit inlet at the proximal end that is in communication with the casing grease channel when the nozzle is coupled to the casing and having a grease conduit outlet at the distal end of the nozzle. The casing and nozzle also include air channels and valve for exhausting air from the crankshaft cavity.
