No, Max ;

It _isn't_ splitting hairs and it shouldn't take major force to separate a taper fit joint .

That was my entire point .

Much older vehicles used taper fits to hold brake drums to axles, flywheels to crank shafts and so on ~ high torque force applications where brute force separating would damage bearings and other internal parts .

Thats splitting hairs. OK, the taper is right above the threads. It makes a very snug fit and takes a lot of persuasion to come apart. Max
