Hey guys, quick question, im needing to take apart these ITB's fully, weld up the holes and go with a single throttle body. Does anyone know how to take apart the butterfly valve? Thanks!
I already done this its a real pain in the ass to put back the shaft with the plate and after you have to seal it with some silliconne if you clean it ended up to order new one haha good luck buddy

If I remember the shafts and seals are staked in the housing. You need to remove the stake with a grinder or file and then it should come out

I don't have experience with RB motors but for subarus we remove the TGV (tumbler generator valves) which are butterfly valves mounted under the intake manifold. We have to grind/drill out the rivets, remove the stepper motors, cut and remove the rod, then either weld or fill the holes with JB weld the smooth it out to the bore.
