Help requested. I need to replace the axle in my model C as part of a complete overhaul. The erg has been used by me in my home since new. The service manuals available online from C2 do not contain any information on replacing the axle. This information is available for models D and E. Is process similar? I had hoped to complete the overhaul this weekend so any help is appreciated.

I got an axle removal tool from C2 when I replaced the cogwheel on the model C.

Later I had to replace the clutch, with a new one from C2 and used the same tool.

A local machine shop pressed the axle back in for $20.

Thanks for your advice. With the help of a fellow engineer I completed all of the upgrades with the exception of replacing the chain in about and hour today. I am very pleased with result. With two engineers working on it, it is amazing that we were able to accomplish anything.
