No, there is no need to replace the flywheel but it is a good idea to have the flywheel surface machined.
You don't HAVE to replace the clutch, but, since the clutch has to be removed before the flywheel can come off, it'd be foolish not to. There's a lot of work involved that would have to be duplicated later.
A slipping clutch may cause cracks on the flywheel wear surface from excessive heat. The cracks would be reason enough to replace the flywheel when replacing the clutch assembly.
you need to remove the transmission then unbolt the clutch from the flywheel.
It is necessary to to adjust the the clutch actuation system to set up the correct free movement when replacing any of the clutch components
Yes you do. Flywheel on the Semi's are very heavy and in order to sync right you have to double clutch.
yes you can, but you will also have to change flywheel on engine to enable you to intall a clutch
possible that it was inproperly installed or needs replacing and it could be the clutch to so open er up.
This just ensures that the fly wheel is perfectly even and to remove any warped spots . The clutch needs to be mated at even distance or the clutch will be prematurly burned out. Also if the flywheel is warped it can cause the clutch to slip as it is used.
Assuming this is a standard transmission flywheel, if the clutch has been allowed to slip excessively and overheat the flywheel, it may have cracked and warped the flywheel clutch surface allowing the clutch to chatter during take off.
Simply put. when you depress the clutch pedal, it separates the clutch disc from the flywheel, when you let go of your clutch pedal it drops the clutch disc back onto the flywheel. Flywheel- spins at the speed of your engine (RPM) revs per minute depressed clutch-is seperated from flywheel allows you to shift into higher or lower gear released clutch- is engaged onto flywheel the two connect.. engaged clutch means your gonna move! disengaged clutch means you aint moving forward, your literally in neutral.
It's about 7 hours of labor. So depending how much your local mechanic is charging for labor/hour. you do the math... mine charged me 60.00/hr. and i got clutch flywheel and throwout bearing for 149 and change. plan on dropping about 500 into it.
automatic? remove transmission and torque converter then remove flexplate (auto has a flexplate not a flywheel if mauel transmission remove gear box and clutch then remove flywheel
