I have been attempting to turn the fixed cup(drive side/right) out by turning the sheldon home made tool toward the back of the frame. I'm wondering if that is the correct direction and how to tell which is correct. I have sheared off two 5/16" case hardened bolt attempting this!
Additional thoughts would be appreciated!
