ABSTRACT:
Means are provided to remove the high turbine rotor in a twin spool gas turbine engine without requiring a major disassembly of the entire engine particularly where the low shaft is "bottled" so that it cannot be removed axially from the engine, which means includes a tool adapted to fit between the narrow annular space between the shafts to torsionally couple the low rotor shaft and high rotor coupling nut, such that torquing the low rotor shaft uncouples the high turbine rotor.
