Totto · 20-Sep-2004, 22:56

Hoping to strip the clutch on my 998 again ! ,but this time pull the basket out ,is there anything strange i should know Nut size's would be helpful , i have pulled the plates out & cleaned twice already but this time is gonna be a full strip out in prep for a new clutch ( Slpper maybe !!!!!)

Thanks !

I think the clutch drum nut is 32 or a 34mm, I am pretty sure it's a 32...

The hardest bit will be getting that bugger off, dunno what the standard clutch torque setting is, but the slipper needs 195ft/lb torque from memory

Youll need a proper clutch drum holding tool!!

Made out of an old set of friction plates, a welder and a piece of bar.

32mm socket for the clutch centre nut and a 13mm on for the basket ones.
You'll need a holding tool as already suggested. Torque on the centre nut is 186Nm, the basket bolts are 33Nm(?) Use loctite on them all.
If you fit a slipper, depending upon brand, the new centre nut could be a 30mm jobbie.

Ive got some old plates kicking about if you still need some.....

Nice looking tool 748mart. but it won't hold the basket. If you were to sandwich a couple of old frictonplates between them, then it would.

Toto I've a factory clutch holding tool you are welcome to use. The only problem would be the postage. It cost me £30.00 and it only travelled 10 miles or so. Its about 3 or 4 ks

Thanks all

Jon do you have any pics ,if i could get a lookie at it i might be able to make my own , if it looks possable then the pastage would not be a problem , failing that i could make one using old plates
