    YTM 225 Clutch Nuts Left Handed Or Right Handed Threads? + Installment Questions!

    This weekend im going to replace both clutches in my 83 ytm 225dx and was wondering before i try torquing the nuts off if they are left handed or right handed threads. I have a manual and it doesn't specify so im assuming it to be right handed threads. Also it talks about lining up arrows on both the clutch boss and pressure plate. which i see both arrows but does it matter how they both go into the basket? also talk about lining up one of the 2 clutch basket grooves with the crankshaft when removing and both installing secondary clutch. is that groove just for clearance for the primary to fit or am i missing something? Also the gear attached to the basket has some left to right play in it. is that normal?

    2 Pictures attached of the basket groove installation pictures.

    thanks for any help

    When you look at the threads that the nut goes on to, you should be able to tell which way to turn the nut to loosen it. I can't be more help than that since it's been so many years since I've been into the clutch on mine that I can't remember.
