Good Morning everyone!
I have a 2008 Malibu 23 LSV.
I went to change the packing and somehow the nut won't thread back on. I went ahead and ordered a dripless.
My problem is getting the coupler off. I know this has been in other threads but they are all old and different than mine.
I don't have any set screws. I do however, have a weird locking collar. Does anyone have experience with this and advise on how to remove it? I am goin g to heat to it today and see if I can slide that collar off to get to the nut. I know how to lock the shaft to get enough pressure to back it out.
If you look in the diameter photo to the coupler where a set screw should be I see nothing in there. So my deduction is that it is only the tooth collar in great holding the bolt on.
Thank you in advance!!

Realistically I will probably have to call them, but that is my last resort.
I hear you there. Don't miss that at all. My new dealer made a house call for me this week. Loving the new dealer experience here!

Not hijacked, My underwater lights are so bright I had to tint windshield to 10% for night time use.
