Is there anyway I can align the clutch when i re-install it with out one of these?

If it's imperitive that I use one, can I borrow one off someone?

Cheers

peice of bar the same size as the hole will do it .....

or the input shaft from an old gearbox.

hehe a drill bit? the shaft end? be creative...... otherwise a junker box may be cheaper than buying the tool :p

use a drill bit that fits the spigot bearing and wrap tape around it until it fits the clutch. Instant tool.......
