Is there a trick to getting the clutch retaining bolts out? they sit right against the ring gear on the flywheel preventing a socket from sliding on. and I can seem to get a good grip with an open end.

You need a thin wall socket. I make my own by grinding down the outside until it fits over the bolt. Yeah--that's low tech but it works for me. Ray (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
