Clutch Questions, Help Needed

[wainwrightj]

You said you've bought a valeo clutch right?  They always used to come with a blue plastic 'disposable' clutch aligner...have you opened the box and checked?

Honestly, I wouldn't bother with a torque wrench for the hub nuts, you can actually feel when they hit the 'stop', and if reusing old nuts, you can make a small mark on the end of the driveshaft and the nut to match together when refitting.  My torque wrench only goes to 300Nm so I've always done the final bit by hand with a 3ft breaker...not caused any issues and I've done plenty of 306 clutches over the years.  The smaller torque wrench is useful to have, though 12-60 may be a bit too small depending on future jobs, something that covers wheel bolts and nuts (usually 85-130Nm depending on make and model) would be more useful.

There's not an alignment tool in the box : I had read they come with them so was hoping it would, it's a shame it hasn't really

There's also a Model 200 torque wrench which is 40-200nm so maybe that'll be more suitable although I won't be able to torque the pressure plate bolts with that

I might contact euro car parts and see if they have them lying about could've fallen out the box or something
