I've removed a few clutch brakes using the torch method, and it sure as hell ain't fun with all that molten metal falling in my face.Originally Posted by Porchclimber
Even if it's a one piece anybody with a torch and a good eye can cut it out and then just replace it with a two piece.I'd grind that thing into gear and drive as fast as I could get away from anybody that wanted to pull the trans to change a clutch brake.
It's also risky 'cause the input shaft seal is right there & if it gets too hot, then the trans will have to come out anyway! (Been lucky & didn't have that happen)
Since then, "i've used nothing but the 2 piece type, even when a trans is re installed after a clutch replacement or whatever, I put the 2 piece in anyway.
Sure saves a lot of cussin' later on.
