Apologies if the answer to this question lies elsewhere, but does anyone
know where I can buy a pair of these wedgy thingies (or even what the
correct name for them is.... :confused: ) for seperating things like
chucks from JT wedges?
I've tried making them before but they always become seriously
'galled' and only usable once or twice.
I s'pose that they need to be case hardened really but, despite having
a large tin of 'Casenit', I have no real facilities for heat treatment.
Tried all the usual googling for wedges, tapers, "chuck seperators",
etc. - I can't find 'em anywhere, yet I'm sure that I saw an ad for
them somewhere on-line, quite recently.
Thanks, in anticipation.......

Please log in for more thread options I've not had a problem with machine tapers (yet) but I've dismantled
more suspension taper joints than I can remember. The accepted way is
not to drive the pin out but to hit the side of the female taper,
preferably with a blow on each side or a blow on one side and a block
on the other. That works 99% of the time. The last 1% needs a bit of
heat. A kettle of boilibg water poured slowly over the joint is
enough. The only time I've ever failed to get one apart was the first
time. That's when I tried belting all sh*t out of the pin and it never
moved.
If you're looking for taper wedges, google Ball Joint Seperators. Try
these
