However it has been taken apart b4 and I want to make sure the clutches are installed in the proper order. I have noticed they are not all the same, some are flat, some are concave, some are thicker some thinner. Does anybody have a step by step guide on how to arrange them? The shop manual I have has no info on that, neither the Chasis Mopar Bible. Thanks Domingo Last edited by domingo; 09/30/10 05:30 PM.

Thanks. Going through this same deal myself. The old 1967 FSM that I'm using shows how to arrange them. I see the thrust buttons, which tend to fall out or get lost, are repro'd and sold on Ebay.
