Ejector for early model sbe

[SKFOOTER]

Anyone know where I can get an ejector assembly for a mid 90's SBE?

[mudhen]

That depends.

 

Which ejector version do you have?

 

Brownell's has the old hockey stick version that is held in place by the plate and two allen head screws.

 

I have never replaced the newer sheet metal version myself, so I don't know who stocks them. The one I know of that broke was sent back to Benelli and they fixed it.

The old hockey stick version is the one I need. Benelli is shipping me one. Can I install it myself?

How bout ya, Mudhen? Can I install it myself?

You're asking a question which can only be answered by yourself.

The fact that you're asking would put the odds slightly against a yes answer.

I'd say 70% no.

Sorry, I'm busy hunting this time of year and don't spend much time here.

 

I've done quite a few myself.

 

But, I've butchered a few as well.

 

If the allen-head screws will back out ok, you have a chance. If not, I've had to drill some out, which ruins the cover plate.

 

I heat them up and try to burn/pick out as much grime as possible. Use a good allen wrench and see if the screws will back out.

 

Be ready to buy new screws and a new cover plate if something goes wrong.

 

Also, remember to buy a new ejector spring while you are at it.

 

Good luck!

Thanks, Mudhen. Benelli is sending me the entire ejector assembly. So, hopefully I can change it out if I can get the set screws out.

Mudhen, I got my ejector assembly in the mail today. Could you please give me instructions on installing the assembly correctly?
