In the process of removing the clutch from my JD 60. Got to the cap screw that holds the drive gear in place on the crankshaft. Every time I turn the wrench, the crankshaft turns. How do you stablize the crankshaft in order to turn this screw loose? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I have not been faced with this, but a similar problem. I usually take a socket and rotate the problem clockwise and then jerk the wrench in the opposite direction. The momentum of the flywheel should be sufficient to allow you to break the stud loose. Probably why I have two wrists with CTS. You might try blocking the path of the wrench with a 2x4 setting on the ground.

I just had to try my own advice on the electric clutch on a 111 mower. Not much compression and even less inertia in the flywheel. Put an 11/16 box end wrench on the stud and gave it a couple of raps with a rubber mallet. Came right out.

JKC, I usually use an impact wrench. If you don't have one available you will either have to try hitting the wrench with a soft or lead hammer,or hold the flywheel from turning, or re-install the clutch plates, then snap the clutch in, put the tractor in high gear with the brakes on & wheels blocked.
