5 speed punto gearbox

3-4 Hub Removal

    • With the circlip removed place the shaft back on the splitter
    •  It needs to be positioned so that it sits on the bottom of third gear
    • Push the shaft through with the press
    • It will also remove 3rd gear & hub at the same time
    • On the bench carefully de-spring the hub push the inner out
    • Retain all the (3) springs & (3) rollers or the 3 shift plates ( detents)
    • Inspect the hub for wear if worn it will need changing *3rd & 4th issues are really common
    • You will also need to clean out all the swarf from both parts of the hub* dull silver almost paste like
    • Use a degreaser or paraffin, brake cleaner and a small wire brush
      Punto laygear with 4th gear removed shows inner and outer hub circlip position and detents
    • Once the 3-4 hub & 3rd gear is removed you are ready for the final stage
