When I pull it out that little bit and it won't go further it is stuck at that point and will not turn freely. I'm at the point where I am almost ready to give up on it. I'd like to put a bomb under it and blow it up. Getting really frustrated because I have other things to do and can't spend...

There is no longer a set screw on the collar and it is still stuck on the shaft. The bearing and race are mostly broken off anyway and the problem is the shaft of the chain sprocket that goes into the tiller shaft will not come out. The set collar would only keep the bearing in place and not...
The bolts are out. I think it has to be a burr in between the chain sprocket shaft and the tiller shaft and probably came from one of the two bolts securing the chain sprocket to the tiller shaft. I had thought about the idea of making a few wooden wedges but did not try it yet. I also...
