I am replacing a broken gear cover with a new part.I can not figure out how to remove the primary shaft from the old broken piece to install in new part.I see no visible clips or retainers.Does the nut on the shaft have to come off? If so how is the shaft secured to turn the nut?Is the nut left or right thread?Or does the bearing on the opposite side have to be pulled to enable the shaft to slide out?Anybody know?

The housing comes off after you take out the GUIDE PINS, They have 2 C-CLIPS each on the inside of the UNDER COVER. Then you have to remove the LEVER that sits on top of the Housing, There are two screws under the lever which will release your housing. I hope this is what you where asking. Good luck
