Default Thanks Forum

Today during my new clutch install we were going to replace the pilot bearing. I put off buying the tool that the service manual says to use thinking I could figure something out. After a few minutes of looking at the bearing I got on the Forum and did a search. I read the tip on using wet toilet paper to remove the bearing, guess what. It worked like a champ. :hurray: Just wanted to say thanks for all the good information.
