Re: Best way to remove fisher price pinion???

The easiest way is to simply point a heat gun at the pinion gear. Just pops right off.

Re: Best way to remove fisher price pinion???

OHHH I just did this yesterday for the first time xD

So... We made a plate that fit on the shaft under the pinion. We cut that little plastic spacer off. A 1/8" Steel plate w/ a slot went right in.

We put another plate in, and used a shop press to press the motor off the pinion.

We did the same (with the plate). It was a 1/8" steel plate with a slot cut in it for the motor to slide into. Then we used a hardened nail (don't ask, I have no clue where it came from) and ground it down until it was small enough to touch only the shaft. Then we used an arbor press to press the pinion off.

With that being said, I will join the others who used a nutsplitter - they're wonderful.
