Default Anyone have Exedy Twin Install Instructions?

I'm planning on installing an Exedy Twin this weekend and was hoping someone had the install instructions that come with the clutch. Exedy has answered all my questions fairly quickly, but with the weekend coming up, I don't believe I'm going to get the instructions before the weekend starts. I appreciate any help!!!!

Okay, I now know the following:
Flywheel to crank - 74 Lb-ft as usual.
Pressure plate to flywheel - 17.5 to 24.5 Lb-ft

Now what I need is the torque spec for the allen screws securing the outer clutch assembly to the inner clutch assembly. Does anyone know this spec, and if not.... do you think a torque chart for that bolt size in to aluminum will suffice. Thanks for any help that can be offered.

I do not know the torque specs, but I just put one in on my drive way.

You do not have to drop the cradle all the way down as some people say.

If you have headers, you will have to loosen them. Pull the spark plug wires so they will hang down. I disconnected rear control arms from the ball joints, shocks, brake line brackets, parking brake brackets (I have straight pipes so no mufflers to mess with) Pop all connections from the diff and trany. Disconnect brake lines above diff. Pop wire harness from tabs on torque tube. Once torque tube is unbolted, drop cradle enough to pull drive shaft back from pressure plate.



There you go



Make sure you do not bind or bend front clutch pack when insert drive shaft. (drive train cradle at different angle than motor, I braced motor in order to keep it from dropping down to far)



Bleeding is not so bad either with a small combination wrench.

In case someone searches for exedy install instructions .... I received the pdf from exedy and have it saved. If anyone happens to need it in the future, just pm me and I'll send it your way.

BTW - The tranny and clutch swap went well and I am happy with the results.
