Clutch Kit Alignment Tool - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #50583 8 posts Started by elvasoshexai
uh... I just bought an ACT clutch kit... The place I bought it from forgot to ship the alignment tool. Is this alignment tool necessary to install it?

you dont NEED it but it is nice to have

otherwise, a simple clutch job can take up to 17 hours like mine did without the right alignment tool. Just go to your local auto store and pick up the right one, it wil make your life a whole lot easier
oh, so if i bring it to my mechanic then he shouldn't need it right? (probably has some mechanic's tool?)

or how do i know which is the right one from an auto store?

it will fit perfectly in the teeth in the middle of the clutch. They usually have a whole box of them at the autoparts store. Otherwise, your no better off than using a broomstick
i used a 18mm deep socket...worked like a charm
whats a good racing clutch and whats better longer or shorter gears
