Did this job for 32 years before retiring from it. Lining a clutch up by eye is always a bit dodgy as if you are the slightest bit out, you'll struggle. Easiest way is if you know someone at a metalwork company, ask them to turn one down for you. Even easier way is use an old 1st motion/ primary shaft from an old gearbox of the same type. Over the years I made up a collection of a dozen of them.
Always amazed how mechanics keep straight the dozens of different jobs they do. Awesome.
Spot on I've always lined a clutch up by eye proper 👌
Brilliant man love watching and learning thank ❤️👀👀👀👀👀👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Good job mate I love the you explain and work I also getting some idea too thanks.
Well done lad, used to do the same
Mint video mate had me laughing all the way through
Thank you mate! I hope you was educated as well 😂🤣
Wow sod ro doing gear box & clutch
I’ve used a broom handle as a clutch lining up tool, wrap a load of tape around it so it’s a snug fit in the friction plate
It's a stroogle, a big stroogle but we love it when it's in 😂😂😂😂😂😂
chris professional struggler love it
😆 well we are dieselmick, thanks mate
What a funny happy Chavvy you really are. Keep on struggling mate.
The age old problem of lining up the box ! I hate rolling about on the floor , specially now I’m nearly 65 , it gets harder to get back up 😂😂👍🏻😞😞
If you can get your hands on a old gearbox input shaft and cut him in half you can use that as an alignment tool.
Super
Ive had those spring pin bushes which are threaded, snap in half, especially front right. ,😃
Just shows you they get some pressure on!
Hi mate
Proper work like me we love it
Well I have to share this with you
Had little iveco 10t for test checked over no day running lights which are also the side lights turns out it was the headlight at fault ,but you are advised to change both if one stops working the other one won't work& if you put one in &the other one has a fault it will destroy the new one £780.00 each what's wrong with a 20p bulb
Have a great week end
Oh my god that’s crazy! How do you explain that to the customer...... side lamp fault mate just call the bill £2000 🤣 yeah as you said what was wrong with a normal bulb! To much technology in simple things nowadays. Enjoy the weekend pal
Thank you sir
Do they not do a clutch alignment tool Like you use on cars?
They do me old 🏍! And I’d advise any who hasn’t done one before to get one because it’s a sh*ter when you have to take the box out again because the plates in the wrong place lad🏍 💨
If you don't struggle then the jobs not going right 😂😂😂😂😂
I once did a clutch where the starter fitted from the gearbox side, fwd car can't remember what it was.
But it meant you could tighten the clutch cover AFTER the box was in position, made lining it up alot easier.
Can you reach the pressure plate bolts through that big access hole on the Scania box ?
Was it an old astra they had like an inspection cover
@@FromMetayou I know the old vauxhall novas had a cover on the bottom of the bell housing, you took the end cover off the gearbox allowing you to withdraw the input shaft.
Do a clutch in 15min, without removing the box.
The car I was thinking of was normal FWD set up , apart from the position of the starter motor, you could leave the clutch cover finger tight, mount the gearbox, and then tighten the clutch through the starter hole with an apprentice (me) turning the engine on the bottom puller to bring each clutch bolt into position.
I want to say Meastro or Montego, but didn't they use VW gearboxes? .....
Ah the old jeerbox job 😄
One of the places i worked used to cut the input shaft out of old boxes and use those to align the clutch up, and you’re right, it’s a total ball ache if you haven’t got them lined up 😂🤦♂️ even on cars they won’t go in it’s a f@cking nightmare pal 😂 top job btw 🤘🤣
And defo you just came up with the best explanation of being a mechanic pal- a professional struggler haha 😂 I’m using that one
Yeah some places I go have some shafts it’s a good idea! That’s what we are mate strugglers 😂 thanks for the comment pal 👍
@@Professional-struggler struggle on pal 😝👌
im working with you
How much do you torque the pressure plate bolts?
they meant to be 47nm
Cor sod that i stick to the warm scania workshop!!!!
Sealey do a good hgv clutch alignment tool kit does 90% of clutchs
We have collected a of old input shafts over the years, have in a box in our workshop to use as dummy shafts makes the job much easier
Number professional strew
Proffetional strugglers and shite spellers we are!! Top lad chris
That bar is over kill for bolts that are meant to be 47nm on clutch plate 😂
Yes Robert
