First - thanks as always for input. I am ready to reinstall new clutch. The flywheel actually was ok. Cleaned to a nice surface and shine very easily, so I am just going to put it back together with new clutch. In fact the old clutch looks in perfect condition. It was the pilot bearing that got whacked. I think I did it trying to jerk in and out of the snow this winter. A Syncro would have been nice. I have one questions before I start and it has to do with teh felt dust washer. Where - or how does that work? Is that something behind the flywheel? Or does that sit in the bearing seat behind the pilot bearing. Which is what I am hoping. |
