Rubuild clutch problem

dtluke

Hey guys, rebuilt dt bottom end today but I've somehow assembled the clutch wrong. All the plates are there and in the same order but it's constantly dissengaged - both pushrods and ball bearing are in place. Anyone done similar or got a good video on YouTube that shows the assembly? As usual the Haynes manual is hard to understand with not enough pictures

It COULD be the same problem I had. I missed one tiny piece of info and did not have one of the pieces rotated correctly

if this IS your issue, then the piece of the clutch I was turning needs to be taken off and turned until it fits in with the notch on the outer basket.

@MIGHTYMAN Thanks for the reply mate , will have a good look at that tomorrow. Can't quite understand without going and taking it part again

I LOVE THIS WEBSITE!!!! Thanks mightyman, I had to go down to the garage and see what you were talking about and yep - that was my problem too, had no idea the clutch face only has one one to go on !!! Beginners mistake, thanks again - I've been searching google and YouTube for this - should have asked here hours ago.

No probs, happy to help
