Ok I got my clutch back together ON MY 49 "A", but I have one question. How do I get the clutch adjusted so it hits even on all sides? When I took it apart I found that the clutch was hitting harder on one than the other side. I have a manual and I understand how to adjust it for the proper snap. What I have done is use an inch pound torque wrench to get the nuts the same. Is that the right way to do it?

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP BUDD

To me that is the best way to do it. An inch pound torque wrench is on my Christmas list.

Budd,

As many people read this site, there will be as many answers or suggestions to your situation.

Basically get each nut on the threads even with the end and tighten one turn until ALL tighten at the same time. As they draw up against the clutch they should drag against the clutch at about the same place, e.g. 4 1/2, 5 1/4 turns. Stop! Check your snap adjustment. Tighten or loosen accordingly. More than likely it will be on the tight side.

One thing, I completely rebuilt mine, new dogs, new T - bolts (old bolts will have stretched possibly), new linings, etc. If you haven't it will be more of a guessing game for you. One other thing; did you check inside your pulley for flatness.

I never used a torque wrench.?.?. Maybe if you didn't pull them up evenly before you read the torque reading you could have put one in a bind getting a false reading.....
