After you remove the lower cover & the trans. remove the exposed bolts from the clutch & turn the fly wheel to get to the rest of them. Then slide the clutch out through the bottom. You usually have to push the disc up in the houseing & pull the pressure plate out by its self first then the disc. Sometimes it helps to back out the ball that the fork rides on to give a little more clearance.

Thanks for the advice and probably have more questions later. | | | | | Joined: May 2010 Posts: 47 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: May 2010 Posts: 47 | Another question, how do I remove the clutch fork and what throwout bearing to use?
thanks again | | | | | Joined: Dec 2011 Posts: 32 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Dec 2011 Posts: 32 | On my 55 the clutch fork just snaps to a ball mounted inside the bellhousing.
