Probably the trickiest aspect of clutch replacement is the fact that the clutch driven plate must be exactly centred on the flywheel when the clutch cover is fastened over it. This must be done to ensure that the gearbox input shaft mates correctly with both the driven plate and the spigot bush in the tail of the crankshaft. The result of clutch plate misalignment is the gearbox's stubborn inability to clamp up flush to the back of the engine when reassembly is attempted. A clutch alignment tool will take the guesswork out of trying to centre the clutch driven plate.
Most alignment tools are of a universal type. The item listed here is manufactured as a plastic replica of a TR gearbox input shaft - there is no more accurate way of aligning your clutch other than using a real 'spare' input shaft!
Having secured a new clutch to the flywheel, and before refitting the gearbox to the engine, a very light coating of copper grease should be applied to the splines (having wire brushed and cleaned them first) and spigot end of the gearbox input shaft.

Product Description

Triumph TR5-250 Clutch Assembly
Two different manufacturers supplied clutch assemblies for production line fitment to the 6 cylinder TRs.  Debate still rages on the pros and cons to be had from using either a Borg and Beck or a Laycock clutch.  The only indisputable fact is that they are completely interchangeable if fitted as functional sets of cover and plate.
Please note that the Borg and Beck clutch is usually the only one now available.
Please enquire for current availability of Laycock components.
One limiting factor must be considered when changing allegiances from one manufacturer to the other: the Borg And Beck cover assembly requires longer screws to attach it to the flywheel than those used to fit the Laycock cover (this is because the mounting flange on the Laycock cover is thinner than that on the Borg and Beck item).  On the other hand, the length of the screw thread must not exceed 3/4" (for the Borg and Beck clutch) or 5/8" (for the Laycock clutch), otherwise the screws may bottom in the tapped hole in the flywheel, leaving the clutch cover loose.
