3 spd clutch/pressure plate assembly.

Post by layedout72 »

Okay, so I didn't take enough notes when pulling everything apart. So I am here wondering which side of the clutch, faces the pressure plate, and which side goes away from it. The one side (that I believe is the side to face the pressure plate) has the springs pushed out from the actual disc about a 1/2 inch. The other side is flush with the actual disc. Am I thinking right that the part that is "pushed out" faces TOWARDS to the pressure plate?

The flat side goes toward the engine.

Put a little grease on the tranny splines the disk rides on, the tube the
throwout bearing rides on, the end of the shaft that goes in the crank.

Good luck 8)
