Changing a clutch

<< < (4/7) > >>

Guy90:
Not sure what the problem is. It will go on the splines but not all the way. we can't see anything obvious. It's the right clutch, all the other parts are correct, everything is lined up as it should and we can get it part way on the studs. Just can't get it that final inch.

extreme90:
you have turned the engine over on the crank pully to line up the splines ?
ino its silly but its the last inch that the splines are
danny

Dr Neil:
If it was hard to get out aswell is the spiggot bearing o.k as that will be the last think the gearbox shaft goes into??

I know when i fitted a clutch in my series3 i replaced the spiggot bearing but damaged it so when i went to fit the box it wouldn't go all the way in and i spent ages trying to force it in until i took it out and tried fitting a dummy shaft and that wouldn't go in, which is when i realised what i had done :oops: .

hope this helps and you get sorted soon.....
