stoopid clutch question

'68 f250 highboy, 390, 4 speed

Any thoughts on pilot bushing / bearing installation???

Putting in a new clutch assembly and flywheel.

Gotta get my work truck put back together...

Thanks in advance.

-Craig

Craig, Can you provide a little more info? Are you switching from an auto to a manual tranny? or Has your's gone bad?

Are you sure that your's needs to be replaced?

thanks

John

I wouldn't do a clutch job without changing the pilot bushing. It only takes ten minutes with the right tools, and your tranny input bearings will thank you!
