Ford 2000 clutch replacement advice needed

[hbryant123]

I have a 1970 ford 2000. It has the dual stage triangular clutch. It's completely shot. I've got my tractor split and have the clutch out. Where is the best place to get a clutch kit? I dont wanna do this job again. Also does anything need adjusted on the clutch when I install it? I seen it had some.adjuatments on it. Thanks

I'm sure YT has good replacement units. A standard disc can be used.

So it doesnt have to have the triangular disc? The triangular disc kit is the most expensive lol

Triangler clutch last longer when tractor does a lot of loader work, no loader on my 4000 and the round clutch has been in it 20 years with lots of stop and go pulling my round baler.

Ok guys! Ordered a clutch kit. I have a few questions. I dont have access to a manual. I need to know the torque values for the flywheel to the engine and clutch to the flywheel. Also does the clutch need adjustment of any kind before I put it together ? Thanks

I thinks your clutch is called a button clutch I went with a standard clutch disc its easier on the flywheel...

Ok folks. I got my clutch kit in the mail. I have my flywheel resurfaced. I'm soon to be ready to put it back together. So the clutch has three adjusters in the center that ride on the throw out bearing I believe? They look poorly adjusted. None of them look even. How do I set that up? I also need the torque spec for the flywheel bolts if anyone has it! Thanks ahead of time!

Don't do any adjustments until the clutch is installed on the flywheel, highly recommend you at lease get a I&T manual for your tractor, their don't cost that much and have a lot of good info in them.
