The self-adjusting clutch in the above-referenced LuK RepSets

to installation. If the plate is removed prematurely, the clutch
will self-adjust and become completely unusable. Removal
or tampering with the shipping plate will void the warranty.
Follow the instructions below for proper installation.
Installation of these LuK sets requires a reusable, two-
piece tool, which must be purchased separately. Refer to
