What's everyones secret tip to get it tightened? I've seen people wedge a rag in the gears and then tighten it are there any other ways? Does everybody use a impact as well?

 

[REDLINE]

Either way is fine Kaos, just get it to 66ft.lbs.

 

[okbeast]

Be careful with the 1" impacts they can get things kinda tight.

 

[koolguyson]

Easiest way to do it is to just put the clutches in it and press against them while hitting it with an impact. The pressure on the plates keeps the inner hub from moving.

That's what i ended up doin was just hitting it with a impact. Does it have to be exactly 66ft pounds?

no, i never torque mine. i just tighten it up and bend the tab over it

 

[QuickSand]

Me too, give it a couple pumps and bend the washer tab over it..
I use a penny right between the gears, it's soft and soaks up the gear bite!

I ended up just using a impact but used it carefully then tabed over the lock washer. It's not going nowhere

We use 4 small bolts or rivets to mate an old clutch fiber and steel together to hold the inner hub and basket.
With an impact it doesn't take much to reach 66ft lbs, and lock the tab.

you could always use the vise grips they sell for doing that job

 

[KaosBanshee44]

Does it hurt if it's passed 66 pounds or does it have to be exact?

 

[camatv]

pound it on and fold it over..

motion pro makes a tool for about $30 that works like a set of vice grips with bent ends that clamp on your inner clutch hub that WORKS GREAT.
