D4 steering clutch tools?? was created by GrantJ

Several months ago I purchased a tool to release the spring pressure on the steering clutches for disassembly. I thought that there was a video on how to do it (safely) but I cant find it now. Any suggestion on information on using the tool??? Thanks, Grant.

Grant, I just put the clutch in the press and pressed down on the tool to compress the springs, enabling removal of the cotters. It was easy. If you want to do it while the clutch is installed on the tractor, you could probably rig a hole ram with the center bolt to press down on the plate. Probably would need a suitable clearance adaptor so you can get in there to remove the cotters.

Cheers,
