Ford Ranger Pressure Plate Parts Questions & Experts Answers
Q: How to remove and replace the clutch disc and pressure plate on Ford Ranger?
A: Starting clutch disc and pressure plate replacement requires first removing the transmission unit. The installation of clutch disc and pressure plate requires even bolt removal to avoid damaging the diaphragm spring and causing complete clutch release failure. Index-marking of the clutch pressure plate to the Flywheel requires completion before removing six bolts and the clutch pressure plate and clutch disc. Check the transmission Pilot Bearing for any abnormal alignment or looseness from the Crankshaft or flywheel as well as scoring and discoloration along with wear and broken rollers and damage to the seals and lubricant leakage. If any problems exist, replace the pilot bearing. Use emery cloth to smooth out minor defects on the clutch disc friction surface then check it for grease and oil saturation before examining rivets for wear and looseness as well as springs for breakage and spline rust and wear. Replace the clutch disc if necessary. A suitable solution should be used to clean the clutch pressure plate friction surface before inspecting lever wear and checking the friction surface for any scoring, burning, heat checking, distortion, warping or dishing that would require pressure plate replacement. Test the clutch flywheel surface with coarse emery cloth or 400 grit sandpaper using machine line direction when repairing minor defects and checking for surface flaws and heat checks along with glazing, scoring, scratches or grooves. Internal inspection of the flywheel or ring gear needs to verify the absence of any broken or worn or chipped teeth. Begin by greasing the transmission pilot bearing after which adjust the clutch pressure plate by finger pressure until the adjusting ring becomes free so you can turn the ring clockwise to compress tension springs and stay in position once you release finger pressure. A clutch aligner tool should be used to place the clutch disc on the flywheel while matching the markings originally created for reuse of the pressure plate and flywheel units. The clutch disc together with the pressure plate must be positioned correctly using the aligner before you fasten six bolts by using torque settings of 27 Nm (20 lb-ft) following a cross pattern. Secure the transmission to the engine only after connecting the hydraulic tube to the Clutch Slave Cylinder.
