    Hey guys,

    Where can I go to get a clutch alignment tool to use when I go back together with my clutch an tranny on my '66 CJ-5 with the 225V6? It has the stock 3 speed (is that a T-14 or t-18?)

    Anyway, can I find something at NAPA or one of the local autoparts stores to fit it????

    Many thanks,

    Tom in Frankenmuth

    Tom: You should have a T-86 Trans and you should be able to get the alignment tool from any parts store. Good Luck!! Glenn

    or you can use a good straight screwdriver and a good eye.

    Some clutch kits even come with the correct alignment tool. Otherwise, you FLAPS should either have it or they can get it the next day. Good luck! ;)

    If you're in a bind, I can send you out one of those alignment tools right away. Send me a PM with your name & address if interested. :beer:

    Thanks a lot! I think I'll check with one of the local auto stores for a "universal" alignment tool for the clutch. I have checked all the clutch parts and they are in good shape, so I'll surface the flywheel face a little bit with a random orbital sander and put it all together after the parts I ordered arrive. No need to ship anything just yet, but I really appreciate the gesture.

    You guys are great, always willing to help the new guy...
