Actually I think you thread the new boot through the housing without disassembly. The instructions with the boot say to do it this way although I haven't actually attempted it yet. I would avoid removing the housing if there's any way possible as it's near impossible to set the cross pin precisely and I haven't found anyone to fix the one I disassembled 25 years ago. No one around here will even try to balance the unit.


The old guy I watched do this change in 1963,when I was 13, must have known how to set the pin back because that's what he did. I thought he was the smartest dude in the world beside my dad and granddads.

But anyway that works.
