ProTek RC "TruTorque" Clutch Shoe & Spring Assembly Tool
About this part
This is the ProTek R/C "TruTorque" Clutch Assembly Tool. No one wants to spend money on low quality tools. Tools are an investment that should not be taken lightly and are one of the few items that should outlast the life of the model you are working on...and remain with you for years after. With so many choices available, the decision can be overwhelming. So ProTek R/C has stepped up again, expanding its product line with a complete range of affordable, high quality tools that help to make the decision a little easier.
The ProTek R/C "TruTorque" clutch assembly tool simplifies clutch shoe removal and installation. This tool helps to make a daunting task as easy as a turn of the wrist. Simply slide the end of the tool over the crankshaft of any .12 to .30+ size nitro engine, guide the spring hook under the clutch spring and rotate the handle counter-clockwise to lift the spring out of the groove in the clutch nut. The clutch shoe and spring will slide off the flywheel pin when you pull the tool off the crank.
When its time to re-install the shoes, slide the clutch shoe and spring over the flywheel pin and then slide the tool over the crank. Guide the spring hook beneath the clutch spring, gently turn the tool counter-clockwise to lift the spring above the clutch nut and push forward to seat the shoe. Then, turn the tool a little further so the spring hook rotates out from beneath the clutch spring and remove the tool. Verify that the clutch spring is seated in the clutch nut correctly, and you're done!
When it comes to high quality products that are backed by incredible customer support, ProTek R/C has you covered with the products you need to keep your rig ready for action, no matter what.
NOTE: For use with 3-shoe clutches only.

Highly recommended! better than the plastic clutch assembly tools!
Great tool easy to use. I used it to install 3 pc clutch.
Surprised me how good this works. It even lifts the shoe up a little bit so the spring pops off the nut sort of automatically. Unlike that other tool I've been using where I have to wrestle the shoe & spring up myself, this one gets it up for you while you twist. I don't know if I can install shoes with this since I havn't tried that yet but if it turns out all I can do with it is remove them, I'm still totally happy with this. Removal takes less than two seconds per shoe.
This is the best clutch tool I have ever used. I have used many different tools in my years of racing nitro, and this is the best one yet.
Great product!!! I highly recommend it, it make taking yout clutch of with easy. Button it back together is also a breeze Happy owner... George Templeton
All five reviewers rate this clutch shoe and spring assembly tool 5/5 and describe it as easy to use and better than plastic alternatives. Reviewers say it lifts the shoe so the spring comes off with little effort, and one reports removal takes under two seconds per shoe. One reviewer says reassembly is also easy. One reviewer has only used it for removal and has not yet tested installing shoes, so installation performance is less clearly documented. No criticisms or recurring problems were reported.
