flywheel removal
yeah! I had fun with this one!! It actually sits on there like a flex plate it is not mounted like a regular flywheel. I tried all kinds of stuff to get mine off and I swore it would!!
Look on the passenger side of the truck and go way high up on the cast housing there is a small inspection plate (kinda round) with 2 bolts take that off because there are 6 or 8 bolts (cant remember) behind the flywheel on that flex plate. The are real small bolts and are a major pain to get off. you have to turn the flywheel as you go to get all of them. Then they whole flywheel assm comes off as one big unit!!
With all the miles on my truck I had fun doing this becuase everyone I called for help had no clue what I was talking about because they had never done one! Just hang in there with you and get creative with how you twist your arm up in that inspection port and you will get it.
Oh the Inspection port would be on the front side of the clutch housing pretty high up!
Sorry if this is a little hard to understand! I have been up for 27 hrs so if you need anything else just let me know!!
Have fun
