Flywheel Removal - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Are there any tips or "watch out fors" about remove/reinstall the dual mass flywheel?

I will be replacing the crankshaft rear seal this weekend.

Thanks, Jim

Biggest one is just to mark the clutch & flywheel with a paint marker or something similar so they go back together in the same orientation to each other. Can have a peak at the pilot bushing while your in there. Mine came out with my pinky finger, made it easy to inspect

Talking about a pilot bearing or a booger?

I knew me saying that about how easy mine was to come out would get you going. Tell us again Lee, How hard was it to get your's out

. I pulled mine out with one hand & had a cocktail in the other hand...ice cube's didn't even have a chance to melt the bushing came out so fast

Now that's what I'm talking about, working on the ZR-1 with a drink in your other hand. You can visit my garage anytime!
