Thinking ahead in putting my MF 35 back together, I was wondering what a guy does to get the clutch disks alligned. This is the first time I have had to deal with two discs as my tractor has. Is there someone who sells the tool or does anyone know a simple way of making one without a metal lathe as my book gives instructions for such? Thanks.. Gerald

Every time that I have split my tractors for clutch work, I have always,always replaced the transmission and PTO input shaft seals. This is the best time to do this and it only takes about an hour or less. The best part is that when the shafts are removed for seal replacement, I use the shafts to align the clutch and then I install them back in their place.

I agree with using transmission shaft. Should replace seals anyway. Also i have tried all the other ways nothing works as good.

There is a fellow that sells the dual clutch allignment tool on e-bay thats made from machined steel. I bought one for $12.00. Go to e-bay and search "massey ferguson clutch tool" and you will find it. He reguarly has them for sale.

Most good auto parts stores carry the aligment tools made out of plastic. Very inexpensive. Look at your splines, count the groves and you can most likely find one that will work.

I made one for my MF135 out of a piece of wooden dowel, and two pieces of plastic pipe. I glued it all together, and turned the necessary diameters on my lathe. Worked fine. It need to be a tight fit, or the alignment won't be close enough. Don't forget to pilot in the bearing on the crank end.

If I remember right, the proper dimensions are in the I&T manual for Masseys. When I did ours, I did something similar to what you describe and it worked fine.

Gerald, As you know, the two plates MUST be in alignment or you'll never get the tractor back together without damage. First I'd try the workshop foreman in your local MF dealership - he may be prepared to loan you an alignment tool if you leave a suitable deposit. Failing that I'd take the manual to the local machine shop and get a tool turned up, it's a very simple procedure for a machinist.
