    clutch problems

    I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to remove the pilot bearing? I have heard all kinds of different methods like lots of grease or putty and have even heard bread then pushing a clutch alignment tool in and it takes the bearing out please let me no if anyone has done this a easier way thanks.

    advance has the tool. i got one from there before.

    but it didnt work to well for me. nothing would work. i ended up using a dremel tool with a cutting wheel and had to cut it out. if you end up having to do this be very careful not to cut the crank
