After really reefing on it, the crash-bang always produces mixed feelings for me. The startle response followed by the, "Whew, it didn't bust out and kill me."
If you really want the hair standup on the back of your neck.....Disassemble a few Chrysler overdrive units (46,47, 48RE/RH), The Direct Clutch Spring has around 700-800 pounds of force & the hub usually cocks on the Sun Gear while trying to relieve the spring pressure. Have to keep re-trying to get it released cleanly......Sometimes it will pop loose while the press is off the hub a little.
Trick is to never release the press all the way 'til your SURE the hub came off the sun gear cleanly!!!
This has injured & even killed some transmission builders over the years.....Thankfully I've only seen one mishap with these & no one got injured. A tech didn't get the hub released & moved the assembly over to the bench facing up, A few seconds later it released & blew a fluorescent light fixture in half & smashed a 3" piece of conduit above the light fixture flat shorting out the main service to half the building.
Sounded like a bomb went off & everything went dark, Late in the evening in the winter so it went pitch black.
Here's a video....This one released because the unit was still in good shape.
