OS Giken Twin Plate Clutch Install





Our lovely assistants are Rob and Brett



The Tranny Pulla is a 1 meter (3 foot) extension with a swivel head.
The rounded head allows the socket to swivel but applies much more force than a universal.



Here you can see the extension reaches the upper tranny bolts without difficulty.
This allows you to use a large wratchet or breaker bar at the tail of the tranny.
(much easier than busting your knuckles with a wratchet against the firewall)



Now we're pulling the stock flywheel. The clutch was already removed.
You need a "12 point" 14mm socket for this. An Impact gun makes this much easier.
If you can't loosen them without spinning the flywheel, have someone hold it
or you can use a 27mm socket and breaker bar on the crank pulley.



Here's the back end of the engine without the flywheel
Note the large metal gasket/spacer needs to be reinstalled before the new flywheel.
