[QUOTE="TRBO VNM, post: 9034993, member: 14678"] you realize that the pressure plate bolts are a torq to yield and are 33 lb-ft and then an additional 60 degrees right? while you may have done 50 that way, I prefer doing it right, whether it is 1, 50 or 100+. using the torq extension on the flywheel bolts I am sure is fine if you are using 70 lb-ft extension, if I remember correctly the flywheel bolts are 66 lb-ft. they may be 63, but I would have to check the book to be sure. But within a few ft-lb should be fine. either way, to each their own. I would never do something like that and take the risk, but that is just me. there are torq specs for a reason and tightening a pressure plate properly is something to be concerned with or it will not wear correctly and may not even engage/dissengage properly even though it appears so when you are done with your impact. to the OP, like I mentioned in my pm to you, I use a pry bar between the teeth and the kmember/frame rail where they bolt together at the lower point. At the smaller 15mm kmember bolt location. [/QUOTE]
