home made clutch removal tool

[inkaroads]

Well, Happy fathers day for all those fathers that get to do what they choose in this day!!
After installing the lift kit, I found out I need a "SPECIAL" tool to remove the primary clutch, could not wait any longer and decided to make my own tool, it was easier than I thought and the clutch came out like butter, here it is:

Home made clutch removal tool:

5/16" thick x 5 3/4" long round stock steel rod (I believe that yamahas and ezgo uses a similar tool just measure the need length for the round rod for your application)

and a bolt that will match the thread in the outer shell of the clutch housing, goes in the same hole you put the bolt that holds the clutch.

how it works:

1- slide the round rod into the hole in the middle of the clutch housing, when reach the end you will have about a 1/4" between the rod's end and the end of the housing, in the inside to thread the bolt.

2-start tightening the bolt in the housing and as you tighten it the clutch pulls out.

6" Round rod: 1 minute to make and $.03

Fine thread bolt: .25 cents

Not having to wait and save $40 + sh, PRICELESS!!!

This tool will work for many Club Cars from 88 and up and the same is for other makes just the rod length will vary.
