Hello, we have a 1970-4, the clutch is slipping so I know it’s time to replace. I’ve read Pelican’s write up on replacing and also Ian Karr’s YouTube video which was super helpful.
The Pelican write up was super intimidating but the video makes it look a lot more doable. It looks like a big job but I think I can handle it, I am pretty intimidated though. So here’s my questions- Can I just replace the clutch disc without the flywheel and all associated parts? Adding up all the parts with flywheel replacement is much more expensive than just the clutch disc. I know replacing everything as shown in Ian’s video is the best thing I can do but another part of the procedure that scares me is I don’t have the gauges to measure the runout when replacing the flywheel. Also looking for advice on whether I can just pull the tranny vs pulling the whole engine for this job if I’m just replacing clutch? Thanks, Rob |
