Ride hard or ride home alone!
Thanks a lot! It seems I can just replace the whole thing for about $15. Now I just have to hope I don't strip it again. :)
This is pretty interesting as I just tried to remove one of these from a rear hub on a Roadmaster 15 speed and wouldn't ya know it my freewheel tool was too large for it to fit . One side has 04INDEXFREEWHEEL the other half has DNP LONG YIH CO There are 12 splines. Here are a couple pics. I really didn't know there where different size free wheel removal tools. But hey we live and learn
P.S. Yes I took off the nut and spacer shown. Put it back on so I wouldn't lose them lol.
P.S.S. I just read on Parktool website and noticed there are 8 different types. Umm FR-1C for this one???
Good maintenance to your Bike, can make it like the wheels are, true and smooth!
@Bill - Can't see too well from the photo, but if the splines on your freewheel look similar to the Falcon one above, the FR-1C should be the right one. The "standard" Shimano tool fits most off brand old freewheels.
@Mike - If you're trying to remove the ring with the two indents (inside the red circle) you actually need a pin spanner. But this is for taking the freewheel apart and a big piece will remain on the wheel. You probably don't want to try to open up and service a freewheel like this. Just remove and replace.
I have one on the way to get to this little critter hehehe.
Thanks again Dave

Dude I just had to answer you , late but is just that when someone ask a simple question, Is obvious you need an answer. You can take that washer out by hitting it right, its reverse threaded. I just did it now. Grab a hammer and a flat screwdriver and hit it rightly, it will come off.
