If it needs a recone, take a utility knife and cut the **** out. Cut around the surround as close to the landing as possible... same thing with the spider landing. Cut the tinsels... and rip the entire assembly out.

The, take a putty knife and a rubber hammer to chisel off the spider left on the landing and the surround on the landing. After that sand both landings down so the remnants are gone.

Done :).

If changing sizes, you will need a P3 philips head and some torque to get the screws out of the motor/basket. I recommend using goop or some type of epoxy to attatch the motor to the new basket. Then torque the screws back down.

This is where my thread picks up :).

Basically, you use shims in the gap around the pole piece to give an equal thickness all around the former. You want it to be tight so the former doesn't wobble...
