  • C climp eleminator ??? Cutting the housing.

    When cutting the axle housing what do you use to cut it with? Hack saw, cutoff wheel, band saw, sawsall? I'm trying to figure out what would be the best way to go about cutting the ends off.

    I've only seen it done with a saws-all and a file to smooth it up. Is there a gasket between the plate anyway?

                            I used a cut off wheel, file, and emery cloth. Never had an issue.
