for everybody that has ever asked about what size thread is on the drive clutch its a 3/4x16 thread. i used one today and it worked like a champ [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

sorry for the double post....

 

Thanks for the info. I'll probably need it at some point.

 

Did you use a bolt or the clutch puller? I have been trying like hell to find a 3/4-16 bolt, everyone doesn't carry them anymore or has never carried them. I tried our local Hard to find bolt suppliers but the only 2 places I havent checked was lowes or home depot. But I'm afraid if I get one from there It won't be a strong enough tensile strength.

 

i used a grade 8 bolt from the local hardware store.. you need one ab out 4 inches long. one thing i forgot to mention is that you need another small bolt to slip inside the crankshaft. most bolts have a shoulder on them so there isnt enough threads to get to the crank to push on. thats what the other bolt it for. it really needs to be a grade 8 also because i used just a regular grade 2, 1/4" bolt and bent it from the force required to get it off.

 

just becareful you dont screw up the crank threads.
