Here's the video. Some of you are probably very familiar with this, and do it all the time, much like myself:
I purchased a large adj. wrench from harbor freight for $16 or so, and it's all I ever use. Breaks it loose every single time. My recommendation is to wear gloves tho when u hold the wrench over the clutch nut, as you might get pinched when you smack it. (rookie mistake, will NEVER do that again. lol)

I know this is an old thread, but I am wondering, when you use either one of these methods to get the nut off, how do you get it back on to the correct torque? I used an electric engraver to mark both the nut and clutch, then when reinstalling the nut, I tightened it till the marks lined up. I don't have an impact driver, and used a socket and breaker bar, both to remove and install the nut. I loosened/tightened the nut by gently tapping on the end of the breaker bar with a hammer.

(rookie mistake, will NEVER do that again. lol) Yup, that's the video that taught me how to take the clutch apart. Now I take it apart and put it back together that way... after you've done it a few times, you'll get a feel for how many whacks it takes to get the nut tight enough. Gloves? Gloves are just an indication that you need to toughen up your hands.  |
