Installing a new clutch is an exercise in frustration, mainly because you have to manhandle a giant transmission underneath your car. The last thing you want to do is have to start all over because the clutch plate slipped out of alignment and won't engage with the input shaft. Save yourself some time and effort and use a clutch alignment tool to make sure this does not happen to you. The tools are very simple, made from injection moulded plastic or nylon, you need the tool that matches your transmission. This is a matter of knowing the spline count on the input shaft. If the splines don't line up, it won't work. Do not try to fudge it with a tool that does not fully engage the spines. If your clutch alignment tool does not fit the pilot bearing/bushing, it is the wrong one, you need to get the correct one. On the back of the engine, the flywheel bolts to the crank. Inside the crank is a recess for the bearing. The tip of the clutch alignment tool locks into the bearing, keeping your clutch in place. First, insert the tool into the clutch plate. Make sure the clutch is facing the correct direction. The tool should stick all the way through the spines on the plate. Then place the clutch on the flywheel, and engage the alignment tool into the pilot bushing or bearing in the centre of the crankshaft. Push the clutch tight to the flywheel. The tool goes into the clutch plate, and then the tool is installed into the bearing on the flywheel. It should not move around at all. With the clutch on the flywheel, install the pressure plate to the flywheel and start the bolts. Wiggle the alignment tool to make sure it is fully engaged and seated in the pilot bushing/bearing. Tighten the pressure plate bolts in a criss-cross pattern and then torque to spec. The clutch alignment tool stays in the clutch until you are ready to install the transmission. While the pressure place should hold the clutch from moving, don't take the risk of pulling the tool out too soon. Once the transmission is ready to install, pop the tool out, and slide the transmission into place. Every application has a different clutch tool. These three tools look similar, and may even mesh together, but they are all different.Features and SpecificationsClutch Industries (CI) Clutch Alignment ToolMandatory use on Clutch InstallsEnsure optimum clutch life and performanceDual Mass Flywheel: Not IncludedConcentric Slave Cylinder: Not IncludedFitment:Holden Drover 1.3 Ltr, 47kw QB 4WD, 3/85-12/87 1985-1987Suzuki APV 1.6 Ltr MPFI, G16A, 68kw 5 Speed, 8/05-, with Cross Shaft Type Fork (Bearing location on fork 70mm) 2005Suzuki Baleno 1.8 Ltr, J18A, 89kw SY418, 1/96-4/01 1996-2001Suzuki Carry - Supercarry 1.3 Ltr, G13BB, 58kw FDA32V, 5 Speed, 2/99-6/05 1999-2005Suzuki Grand Vitara 1.6 Ltr EFI, G16B SQ416, 1/98-4/05 1998-2005Suzuki Liana 1.8 Ltr, M18A 3/04-8/07 2004-2007Suzuki Sierra 1.3 Ltr, G13A SJ50, 1/84-2/90 1984-1990Suzuki Sierra 1.3 Ltr, G13B SJ70, 6/94-12/96, some 1994-1996Suzuki Sierra 1.3 Ltr, 13BA SJ80, 1/97-5/99 1997-1999Suzuki Sierra 1.3 Ltr, G13A SJ413, 1/84-12/89 1984-1989Suzuki Sierra 1.3 Ltr, G13B SJ413, 6/89-, some 1989Suzuki Sierra 1.3 Ltr SOHC, G13BA SURF, 11/97-9/98 1997-1998Suzuki Swift 1.6 Ltr MPFi DOHC, M16A, 100kw FZ, 5 Speed, 2/12- 2012Suzuki Swift 1.6 Ltr, G16A SF416, 6/89-12/94, incl 4WD 1989-1994Suzuki Swift 1.6 Ltr, G16B SF416, 6/89-12/94, incl 4WD 1989-1994Suzuki SX4 1.6 Ltr EFI DOHC, M16A 1/06-12/07 2006-2007Suzuki Vitara & Escudo 1.6 Ltr, G16B TA02, 1/94-12/99 1994-1999Suzuki Vitara & Escudo 1.6 Ltr EFI, G16B LB11, 1/96-12/98 1996-1998Suzuki Vitara & Escudo 1.6 Ltr, G16A, 57kw SWB, TA01, 5 Speed, 1/89-8/00 1989-2000Suzuki Vitara & Escudo 1.6 Ltr EFI, G16B LWB, TD01, 8/91-12/96 1991-1996Suzuki Vitara & Escudo 1.6 Ltr, G16A, 57kw SWB, TD01, 5 Speed, 1/89-8/00 1989-2000Suzuki X90 1.6 Ltr, G16BA, 71kw 4/96-5/98 1996-1998Suzuki Swift 1.6 Ltr MPFi DOHC, M16A, 92kw ZC31S, 5 Speed, 9/05-9/10, New Zealand Model 2005-2010
