[Warp12]

Be careful using the holder for the first time; it can easily gouge up your hub. I learned that a few years back when I roasted a 14 clutch and wanted to remove the hub

The steels were so warped that they would not come off the hub. Here is a picture of them stacked "flat":

Here is how the holder dug into the hub during the removal process:

Well, my clutch-hub holder-tool arrived today. I was eager to try it out:

A nice sturdy piece that I picked up on Ebay for under $30, shipped. Look at those nice sharp forks sticking out on the end. I bet I can damage something with those! Anyway, on to the job:

Yes, sometimes we must learn from our mistakes. And sometimes that can be time consuming and expensive. I managed to gouge the hell out of the hub while using the holder. It is much harder than the cast hub...with predictable results:

You can see all the damage. I had the holder fairly tight and it dug in pretty good.

As mentioned, this type works well:

I ended up using a cheater bar on it to hold it firmly. :thumbup:
