hi. i got a 95 magnum that has been sitting around broken for a couple of years.im working on it and noticed the clutch dont move. its rusted up.i never pulled a clutch before.can i use a homade puller of some sort? do i got to heat it up or pound on it or what?or is there a way to free it up? thanks

 

For what it is worth, I have heard tell of people using a graphite spray to lubricate the moving parts and then "smacking" the end of the clutch with a rubber hammer to free it up - never tried it myself.

The puller for the primary (drive) clutch is 3/4" fine thread - if you can find a bolt or a long shank trailer ball with 3/4" fine threads (some of the larger gear pullers use this size as the pressure bolt - ie Autozone "free" loaner??) that will reach to the end of the crankshaft, put a little grease on the end and the threads, tighten it as tight as you can and give the head of whatever you use as a puller a good smack with a decent sized hammer - it should "pop" right off the crankshaft.

 

LIke the old saying goes it it moves and aint sposed to use duck tape if it dont move and should use WD40. Spray down the shaft and the sheaves and let it soak a day or so.Then smack it with a rubber hammer.If the rubber hammer dont work get a sledge hammer[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] just joking about the sledge hammer
