I am going to replace the clutch in my 700 dump and was wondering if there was anything that I could do to get it to go smoothly. I have a pto mounted on the side w\plumbing. Bell housing looks like it stays on the motor being it's used for motor mounts. Any tips besides paying someone to do it for me? Thanks

 

The newest I have been in is a 83 F800/8.2 with 5 speed divorced hyd pump. Bell hsg is back of engine. Ring of bolts hold tranny to it. Didn't do clutch, did syno 4/5 was broke. I would take pump off pto leave lines connected.Tie it up or lay aside.

 

I did the clutch on my f350 dump with the pto attached. Was a PITA but got it done. The pto on this is almost the same size as the trans. I have to remove the exhaust for more room. Actually the trans once disconnected from the bell is shorter than the zf5. Ordered the clutch. This should be fun.
