Hi again, I had to pull trans to put in a new rear main seal . Ready to go back in and I cannot find the clutch alignment tool anywhere. I have been to Autozone, Advance Oreillys and Napa. I ordered one from Rock Auto and they sent me the wrong one. I have a 2005 4.0 base with T5od trans. The tool RA sent me fit in the clutch disc but it was too big to fit in Flywheel/pilot bearing. Maybe that one was for the V8?. It has 10 slpines and 1 1/16, the flywheel should be around 15mm. I have never had so much trouble finding a $5 tool. Any ideas? I have been to the local shops to try and borrow/rent/buy or steal one and they all have the same one that RA sold me. This certainly has happened to someone else, Im sure.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

 

Snug the Pressure plate down and feel your way around the disc making sure it is the right spot, stab the trans and have someone push the clutch in while you are stabbing it.

 

Easier said than done. I once took an 8-inch length of wooden broomhandle, ground the tip down to transmission input shaft diameter, followed by diameter of ID of clutch disc. Worked like a charm!

 

Look at the clutch kits for a 93' mustang 2.3 on rockauto. the alignment tool is 10 spline. I have 1 from my old car if you can use it, LMK.
