Default Clutch Alignment Tool

Finally decided to replace the original clutch in my AP1 this weekend but I don't have an alignment tool that fits! I did not buy a kit and didn't realize that none of the 7 or so alignment tools would fit the S2K.

I thought I'd ask around on here since I can't find one at the local parts stores.

LIve in Chelsea but can meet in the B'ham metro area.

Look for a clutch alignment tool for a 90-98 Accord, same tool.

I actually got another S2k guy to ship me one for $5. If you haven't found one, I can ship it to you.

Thanks for the offer! I actually modified an old alignment tool from a '80 Ford Bronco clutch install to work!!! Sanded the splines down to the diameter I needed, then cut about an inch off the end and drove a 13mm socket on it for the pilot bearing. Worked well enough, transmission slid right in first try.

I had to get the clutch installed over the past weekend in order to get it broken in before this Friday - track day at Road Atlanta!!!

Nice. I am tempted to head to Road Atlanta this weekend as well. I know they still needed one instructor for the Just Track It Friday, and my buddy Emmanuel told me this morning that NASA Southeast still needs instructors for the weekend too.
