Author Message   Buellish Posted on Monday, April 18, 2011 - 09:40 pm:        I remember someone posting a PVC pipe cap clutch diaphragm spring tool earlier this year.I've searched but can't find it.There were pics and a description.It was pretty well thought out. Does anyone have a link? Thanks, Mike   Nallac Posted on Tuesday, April 19, 2011 - 02:42 am:        this one?. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/476 23/589522.html   Someday Posted on Tuesday, April 19, 2011 - 09:14 am:        I replaced the spring plate in my clutch this winter and posted these.   Buellish Posted on Tuesday, April 19, 2011 - 11:28 am:        Nallac,that is the one I was referring to.Thanks Someday,what kind of PVC is that?Some kind of spacer?   Someday Posted on Tuesday, April 19, 2011 - 01:27 pm:        It's just a 7/8" long piece of 3" PVC pipe. Either Lowes or Home Depot has 2' long pieces for a few bucks. The aluminum piece measures 1/2" thick X 1 1/4" wide X 4" long. Simple and worked great! I'd bet a piece of oak or possibly 5/8" plywood would work in place of the aluminum.

I had to buy a 2 ft long piece, that's the shortest they sell.   Natexlh1000 Posted on Tuesday, April 19, 2011 - 04:33 pm:        I used the same exact method as Someday's but I was lucky enough to find some thin-walled steel tubing on the floor of the old garage. Thin wall means more room to work on the clippy thing.   Natexlh1000 Posted on Tuesday, April 19, 2011 - 04:44 pm:        Found the old thread: http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/476 23/193459.html Like minds think great!   Someday Posted on Tuesday, April 19, 2011 - 04:53 pm:        I got the idea from Natexlh100. Give credit where credit is due!   Natexlh1000 Posted on Tuesday, April 19, 2011 - 05:44 pm:        Oh! I thought it was a coincidence! I'm flattered   Buellistic Posted on Tuesday, April 19, 2011 - 08:21 pm:        Natexlh1000: "i" have to give you an At-A-Boy on that one also !!!

Every time somebody needs the tool they have to search for it.   Buellistic Posted on Wednesday, April 20, 2011 - 06:15 am:        BUELLish: Check out THUMPer Forum as this is the way to set up a site ...   Crackhead Posted on Thursday, June 30, 2011 - 11:14 am:        hummm.... how long is the JIMS clutch, crank locking tool? you might be able to use it for the cross bar.
