Clutch R&R questions

I'm impressed with that idea. I've never done a big truck before but have done a hundred automotive one's before. I like the 2 piece clutch brake because you can change it out in like 5 minutes. The solid ones you have to cut out with a torch.

I can't help but wonder is your avatar you that is doing this? I wouldn't think so, but it would be impressive though

 

Do that when hanging the flywheel, a couple of old bolts. Helps a lot.

 

Nice.

 

I could never imagine how many I set on my chest and strong armed in. Only ever had a clutch jack at one shop.

But ill never do one again with out something says my back and neck.

 

So she’s only 18? Why you Dirty Dog you!! Lol Just kidding! We’re coming up on 39 yrs together. She barred the Engine over for Me, when I did mine!! She complained “I didn’t sign up for this” Had her bar it around one more time, to recheck the bolts. Lol. I like to hear her complain these days. It’s rare.

 

Lol, that’s a good one. My sister always looked about 18 yrs old, even when she was 50. Her husband looked like a bearded old man. He got a lot of dirty looks. Lol.

 

I’m guessing your clutch is the new style, with the intermediate plate already in place, and straps instead of the 3 pins. That’s what mine was. Heavy, but easier installation. No chatter at all while idling. Lots of good tips given. I had a heck of a time with mine. Makes Me really appreciate those who do them all the time. If it hadn’t been for Boxcarkidd talking me through, I’d never got it done. Hopefully I’ll never do another, Lol. Biggest job I’ve ever done. Good Luck, be careful.
