Default Re: Clutch shudder and horseshoe shims

If you exercise care in rotating the crankshaft you can dial indicate the housing alignment with the engine in the car,its common practice on heavy trucks to dial in the flywheel housing with the engine installed.The reason its important to do is if the shafts are out of alignment the clutch disc will engage in one area of the flywheel first,instead of the total disc engaging,creating a chatter.
