Re: How to remove Third Series Six clutch plates?

I have done that on my 126 but it was over 30 years ago. I don't recall any difficulty getting that centre nut off, you just have to lock or hold the clutch assembly from turning. Then that centre splined piece has to be pulled off the keyed shaft. The instructions below show a puller. I guess I made one to suit on the lathe, can't recall. Anyway, maybe the attached instructions for the 126,226,326 cars from the Service Manual will help.
I have a number of old clutches in unknown condition but all have badly indented splines from the plates. I had to have the splines cut deeper and new plates made to suit for my car and it is still working fine.
