Clutch Assembly: Installation

NOTE: Lubricate yoke splines with Lubricant (ESA-MIC75-B).

Install flywheel. Position clutch disc and pressure plate on flywheel. Align index mark on pressure plate with flywheel. Ensure dowel pins on flywheel are not bent, damaged or missing. Replace if necessary. Start pressure plate attaching bolts, but do not tighten. Align clutch disc using Clutch Aligner (T74P-7137-K).

NOTE: Reuse aluminum washers under attaching bolts to prevent galvanic corrosion.

Tighten pressure plate-to-flywheel bolts evenly in crisscross pattern until tightened to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . Before installing transmission, lubricate outside diameter of transmission front bearing retainer, inside groove of release bearing, clutch release shaft fingers, pivot ball and mating pocket on release shaft. To complete installation, reverse removal procedure.
