Rob Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 I've used the air hammer trick myself. Sometimes they are really stuck but good. I've found having the truck hot is usually best.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Bollweevil Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 An air chisel is by far the easy way to break it loose. Until you try this you will not realize just how much dust the clutch assembly will collect. Dust created by wear of the friction discs is bad enough. Rotation of the flywheel and clutch assembly must create a vortex to pull outside contaminants into the flywheel housing when the inspection cover is left off. More especially in off road use. From my own observation over the years, and I can think of no other reason, after finding a stuck gommed up adjustment ring and no cover plate. If yours doesn't have a cover, find one and install it.
