[QUOTE="wfooshee, post: 1293225, member: 6354"] I skipped the spacer because it's outside of the clutch boss, behind it, and not part of the assembled boss and the plates it contains. The nut on the clutch boss is 30mm, and you'll probably need an air impact socket to remove it. When replacing, it torques down to 90 newton-meters, or about 65 lb-ft for us 'Muricans. Thing is, without clutch engagement there's nothing to hold the boss in place while you tighten it. The service manual describes a tool that grabs the outside of the boss to hold it. What I did in my transmission repair was have someone hold the rear brake while I tightened it against the drivetrain. That moves a lot more than you'd expect, because the middle gear shaft transfers drive to the bevel gear through a cam device which is held by a heavy spring. You WILL move that cam device while tightening the nut, so don't think you're breaking something in the drivetrain when the boss turns a little with the wrench before it actually tightens down the nut. So there's still no one going to teach us what the differences in the #17 UR plates are; what the T1.6, T2.0, and T2.6 mean? [/QUOTE]
