“C” Video “RUSTLESS MONEY PIT, 1973 05 EAGLE, 6-3-2022

Clutch parts for assembly but I need the pilot bearing part number.

Well I watched a few youtube videos, but unfortunately there is nothing for an old bus like the Rustless Money Pit. So after watching as many as I could stand I decided to video all parts I have, how I think they should go together etc. Please let me know if I am wrong in my assumption.

  1. I have to determine what size bolts in length and dia to get and I will use grade 8. I will also use either lock washers or star washers to assemble the clutch to flywheel. I will also torque these bolts to American torque standards unless advised by anyone here differently.
  2. My videos show the actual flywheel and there is a recess there that looks like it is for a pilot bearing, I need this part number to have for assembly.
  3. I figured out that that the plastic alignment tool is used the same time the clutch is assembled as it has a guide end that fits into the pilot bearing.
  4. I have to make a lifting fixture for my floor jack to assemble my clutch to the flywheel, I do not have enough strength to do it alone by hand.
  5. I have a lot of work to do to reset the transmission on the transmission floor jack, I know it is overloaded just by the way it looks. What the hell else should I do?

OK, here are the assembly videos of the parts I think will go together. I hope someone helps me make a good decision here as I need to depend upon you for correctness otherwise I am going for it my way. Don’t worry, any information I give you will not make you responsible for any problems I have, I will not sue you!
