I am trying to remove the chaincase cover from my '09 Nytro so that I can replace the lower gear bolt that alot of people have had problems with.
I have everthing off (brakes, spacer on the shaft and all of the bolts) and I can't get the cover to come loose. I don't want to break anything, so I'm wondering what other people have done to get the cover loose. I've tryed prying it loose with a screw driver and tapping it with a rubber mallet.
Thanks for any advice.
 

Did you remove the 2 little 10mm heads bolts that hold the reverse idler pulley and the chain tensioner?

What triple said. Two little bolts on the Nytros, RX chassis have one. ;)!
 
chaincase bolts

Are these the two bolts you are referring to?
They don't mention having to remove these in the service manual.

Is there a hassle with putting them back in when replacing the cover?

Those are the bolts they are talking about, be careful when you loosen them as there is a spring behind the cover that will pop it off and then stuff can go flying everywhere.
