comparing new clutch to old clutch

[]2eDeYe]

Never had a problem hammering on the plastic tool. :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is from the last time I did the clutch in the Jeep, but it's the same process. As you can see, I didn't need any more grease or oil under there :lol:

Pull a sparkplug and feed about 10 feet of 1/4" nylon rope into the cylinder. When the piston comes up to TDC it will lock up on the SOFT rope and enable you to break loose the flywheel bolts. When you are done back the engine up a bit and extract the rope.

i have heard about that trick as well. but it was for something else. oh yeah crank pulley. good idea all in all though. keeps everything frome getting screwed up.

2eDeYe;83194']Soap. Search 'hydraulic method' for a bit more info if what's below doesn't make sense.

 

Smash some bar soap in the hole. Use your clutch alignment tool in the hole and hit it with a rubber mallet to smash the soap in some more. Pack more soap in there' date=' hit the alignment tool and hammer. Eventually the soap will push out the bushing. Scrape out the soap install your new bushing.[/quote']

 

grease works too, hell in a pinch i've used gojo
