so I flap disked the lug down as it was slightly mangled from be trying to bodge it in place :d
so now it sits flush but not all thee holes line up...ive tried putting the box in neutral and twisting the box but I keep having the same problem one or two of the holes will line up but the others will not!! :mad:
don't know if anyone can see anyproblems from these pics but if you can help me out lol

Dunno if it's the pic but the clutch friction plate (with the female splines) doesn't look aligned, you massive bodger
-
how do I get it lined up if that's the case?
the engine was taken out of a working car and I never removed the clutch so I don't know how it can be lined up wrong :tard:
-
you will have moved it ball assing around tryna get it in lol.
I always use my finger to line them up and never had a problem,poke ya finger through when the pressure plate is nipped but not tight,then when ya finger goes straight through and into the recess in the crank what the input shaft end goes into,hold it there and tighten the 6 clutch bolts.make life easier for yourself by greasing the splines on the input shaft too.

Yep by eye/finger/socket/socket extension is easy enough esp now it's out and on the floor. It could have had a posh clutch on and they threw a cheapy standard one on for the sale
-
who in their right mind would put a posh clutch on a 1200 fartbox hahaha
