RESTO Noisy blower

[John283]

I have a '97 Sportster that has a noisy blower motor, sounds like a bushing/bearing issue. How do I get the blower assembly out ?

 

[951 or bust.]

Any luck with removal ? I screwed with mine for 5 min with no luck removing it. Mine is also noisy was going to remove it and see if I can great bearing or replace bearing or bushing of not to much trouble.

I had to replace my blower as well,
I drilled out the rivets from the top side and removed the whole assembly to access the blower.
Once fixed, I reattached using new rivets.
