Repair and Service Manual
Read all of Section B and this section before attempting any procedure. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions, Warnings and Dangers.
Use only sockets designed for use with an
impact wrench. Never use a socket intended
for use with hand tools.
Remove the drive belt (1). (Refer to ‘Removing The
Drive Belt’ procedure elsewhere in this section.)
Remove the Starter/Generator belt (Refer to ‘Starter/
Generator Removal’ in ENGINE section.)
Using a 19mm impact socket with a impact tool and a
impact universal joint, remove the 19 mm bolt (2) from
the center of the drive clutch (5).
Raise the vehicle frame with the floor jack and allow the
powertrain to drop so that the clutch puller bolt clears
the spring hanger. Remove the front eyebolt from the
spring hanger using a 15 mm socket and a 15 mm
wrench. Install the clutch puller bolt in a clockwise posi-
tion and using the impact tool and universal joint
remove the drive clutch from the shaft. Remove the
clutch puller bolt.
In some extreme cases, the clutch may not separate from the
crankshaft. Remove the clutch puller bolt and fill the cavity
with grease. Replace the clutch puller bolt and tighten it with
the impact wrench. The combined mechanical and hydraulic
effect will remove the clutch. Remove all excess grease.
