clutch tools

when replacing the clutch, anyone have any tricks to get the pilot bearing out and also to hold the flywheel so you can get the bolts loose to remove it?

I know there is a bearing puller and a holder for the flywheel, but who has done it without getting those tools?

You can get the bearing puller and slide hammer at AutoZone to get the pilot bearing out.

To hold the flywheel you can have someone use a breaker bar on the bolt in the center of the Crankshaft pully on the other side of the engine.

Or use airtools to get the flywheel bolts off. That's the easiest way. You can buy a tool that holds it or use a big screwdriver to keep it from moving. You don't need a puller to get it off. Just wiggle it off or LIGHTLY tap it from each side to jiggle it loose. Upgrade! Upgrade! Upgrade to the Fidanza! hehe
