Get yourself a service manual first and foremost. The clutches are pretty simple. The only special tools that are required besides splitting stands are the gauge for adjusting the fingers and a pilot tool to line up the traction clutch disk. You'd be well advised to replace the rear main seal while you're there, and inspect the flywheel ring gear, although at those low hours it should be okay. I'd also replace the seal on the trans input shaft. With any luck the rear seal retainer will come off without taking the pan gasket with it, but be forewarned that it could tear the pan gasket. At that point you can either piece in a new chunk using a new pan gasket, or remove the pan and replace the entire thing. I've done it both ways with good luck. Also inspect the traction clutch throwout bearing and the PTO engage bearings. And replace the pilot bearing in the crankshaft And normally we replace all the fingers, pins, operating bolts and nuts if they show any wear at all. The springs also aren't too expensive, so if you really want it back to factory specs, replace those too. It just depends on how far you want to go with it. And one more thing - set up and adjust the clutch with the flywheel on a a bench, then remove the clutch, install the flywheel on the crank and reinstall the clutch. It's a little easier that way than doing the adjustment with the clutch installed for good.

This would make the whole engine rebuild job much easier-and much less expensive! I soon found however, that the #4 conrod bearing had disintegrated, taking with it chunks of the crankshaft journal.
