Well since it seems like alot of evo owners have problems with this i figured i would try to help a little.

All of this will be done through the inspection hole in the tranny, i just did it out of the car to you could see it alot better. Make sure you do this before you unbolt the bell housing



Take a flat head and stick it in between the TOB and wedge collar.


Use the clutch fork to move the TOB toward the pressure plate.


While the TOB is against the pressure plate turn the flat head, while the flat head is sideways push the clutch fork so it makes the TOB slide away from the pressure plate.



well, thats all there is to it. I hope i helped some of you that havnt done an evo clutch yet.

very nice write up Dan!

 

thanks!

 

Great job very helpful and good pictures

 

I struggled with this in a previous car. I am positive this will help someone out. Thanks for the contribution

 

it's harder when it's in the car going through a little hole.

 

Yes sir, it sure is. But this really helps you know exactly what you want to do. Directions just don't really cut it without seeing it with pictures. Great thread. Thanks

 

here been on for years

Amen... I replaced the clutch as a jackstand warrior and this is a LOT harder through a little hole. This will help someone though or at least give them a good mental image of what has to be done if doing it from under the car.

 

Yeah thats what I used when I've done my two clutches. maybe it was just me though. But the throwout bearing release part was kinda harder to understand than this is. I guess because you can see what he's talking about more since the picture isnt taken from outside that little hole. But yeah...Those directions at evomoto got me through my first clutch job. VERY helpful also

 

thats exactly why i made this how to, and this is the only issue i ever hear about people having when replacing a clutch.

 

great write up. just the info I was looking for this afternoon. Thanks!!!!

 

is this also applicable for push type of pressure plate?

i understand that this kind of pressure plate is a "pull-type" one

 

dude you rock! i couldnt get it till this thread. Thanks

 

Did clutch job about 2 months ago.
