I have a 14 viper I'm trying to remove the jackshaft to replace the bearings in the chaincase and clutch side. I have all the clips taken off both sides. There was no clip on the clutch side. I tried to move the threaded collar in to release the jackshaft but it will not budge. Is there something I'm doing wrong?


You loosened the nut and gave it a few taps with a punch and hammer?
