HDi Clutch Change

[C2K]

Front hub nuts are 35mm, although a 36mm will work. they are 325Nm torque if i recall, so be prepared with a big bar - borrow someone's 3/4 if you can and they'll come right off. A Snap-on 18V gun would have them off but can't speak for anything else non-pneumatic.

It's a straightforward job to do, just be methodical - think the job through first and assess what are the real risks that things could go wrong.

Make sure you have spare driveshaft seals in case you damage one. Gearbox oil is easier to put in the top rather than through the filler hole. Change thelittle white bushes on the clutch fork, they're 99p each and are one of the causes of a heavy clutch. Clutch alignment can be done with a ratchet handle or similar, you're only looking to line the clutch spline up with the flywheel hole. If you've not done one before it's not uncommon to have to stick your hand in the hole and spin the shaft a little if the splines don't engage.

DON'T FORGET TO PUT THE THRUST BEARING ON THE FORK. There is a fairly thorough n00bs guide on 306.net.
