Re: Flywheel removal
the pilot bearing goes into the middle of the fly wheel, smear a little
grease inside of the bearing and on the nose of the transmission. The
throughout bearing goes onto the fork, and goes OVER the shaft of the
transmission when you are installing the tranny. SO the shaft will go
through the bearing. You will need a plastic alignment tool for when you
install your clutch and pressure plate. It will look like the shaft on the
transmission, and will have the grooves in it to match your clutch plate, and
a extended piece on the end, to fit into the pilot bearing. You MUST use
this tool, to align the components with the pilot bearing properly, as you
torque down the pressure plate bolts. If you don't use this, you'll be VERY
lucky to be able to get the transmission back into the vehicle. Also, when
installing the tranny, don't force it in. make sure it slides into the
clutch and then the pilot bearing. Forcing will cause damage to the pilot
bearing and ultimately the shaft itself. (Did this before) It will be a
fight, usually, but be patient. You may need to turn the tranny shaft a your
installing it. Use your driveline if you have to.....
