It is to ensure that there is no contamination between the two partsAlways use a clutch adjustment toolNever allow the weight of the transmission to hang on the clutch components.Replacement instructions1) Thoroughly inspect loose bearing/housing for excessive wear and replace if necessary.2) Inspect all components for signs of oil contamination. Check engine and transmission seals and replace if necessary.3) Inspect the old clutch plate splines for signs of excessive wear or damage. This may indicate previous transmission misalignment.4) Inspect the flywheel for runout, nicks or cracks and excessive wear . If this is not repaired, abnormal and excessive clutch plate wear will occur. Ensure that both friction and mounting surfaces of the flywheel are properly machined if the flywheel is mostly machined. Excessively worn flywheels should always be easily replaced.5) Ensure that the clutch release mechanism operates freely and inspect all parts of the release bearing assembly (clutch release arm, cross shaft, bushings, bearings, etc.) for excessive wear or damage. Replace all non-standard parts.6) Ensure that all contact surfaces are in good condition and that oil or grease cannot contaminate the contact surfaces. Always remove any protective coating that may have been properly applied to the clutch cover pressure plate.7) Before assembly, make sure that the driven plate is not damaged, lightly lubricate the grooves.

Make sure the cover is properly seated on the dowels. Also, that any alignment marks or grooves are properly seated.Extra replacement tips;Before reassembling the transmission, ensure that all transmission dowels are in place and not excessively worn. Make sure all the dowel screws are somewhat replaced in the correct placeWhen adjusting the transmission to the engine. Be careful not to damage the diaphragm fingers.
