It's the only nut I have not yet removed cos it slips on me to.how did you get this nut off? i cant get a screwdriver to hold the small output gear (with the GIANT flathead slot) on the other side. without it slipping, and i would prefer not to strip it. i was actually thinking of just buying another dax kit so i could dissect/rebuild and have spare parts
I will have to make a special tool and will let you know.
"Special Tools" in this household are shaped with blowtorch and hammer, Bench Grinder, Angle Grinder and Power Drill.
If all fails, Hammer and Chisel.
Tip, those thin spanners they use on bike axles,they cost here about $18.00 a set.
They cost me 50 cents-$1.00 cents at garage sales or op shops.
I grind them thin till they fit. Always dip spanners in water if grinding, you don't want the hardening to unharden as they blue due to heat.

also, how did you loosen the flywheel nut? as stated before, i can get the sprocket side undone, but cant figure out what to grab onto to loosen the flywheel side.
With a socket that fits. If the socket is too think on the outside, grind all around. Then grab the 3 prongs with a multi-grip or better a vice-grip plyers.
No. Try imagination till I pay my traffic fines, then I'll get a camera.do you happen to have pictures?
The picture you have shown, I used a socket and a right-angle socket bar, and held the piston. Place a mark on the magnet which way it was on. I think this is very important.
But the sprocket, you need that special tool .
