Title: WTB Something that will Isolate the Clutch
Post by: jay1622 on August 17, 2015, 10:42:40 AM: Anything floating around out there for clutch servicing? I'm guessing I could impact wrench the nut on and off, but I'm thinking I'm going to do it the old fashioned way... The correct and patient way.

I use a hunk of 2x4 personally.

Post by: jay1622 on August 17, 2015, 06:05:55 PM: Yes, that is exactly what I am hoping to do. Since I posted this, I have seen a few makeshift holding implements made out of bar stock and a grinding wheel by the looks of it. It looks easy enough, but I'm guessing the 2 x 4 tool is an accepted method; can probably figure out where to place it and how much to use once I get in there.

Was the hammer handle used on a 75? I know you can do that with the 100s, but I probably would need a reference picture for using a hammer handle on the 75.

The link may be bad, but you can download the .pdf file as it is hosted on this site.

Lowe's had bar stock (1"x1/4"x36") on sale for $5.00. There's a great DYI clutch isolater diagram in an old Haynes manual I have. My metal cutter, a drill, some good metal bits, a punch, a grinder and a finishing wheel should do just the trick. And, if I goof it up too bad, I've got plenty to go back to the cutting board with.
