Default clutch shoes and springs

Does anyone have any detailed directions on how to put on clutch springs and shoes on my savage 4.6? The manaul doesnt really show any good details and i want to make sure i do it right. Any help would be appriciated. (i am upgrading to Mugen springs and shoes, if that helps)

Thanx

You won't do it wrong. Even if you put them in backwards, they'll still work. In fact they'll grab even harder. There is certainly no better visual guide to how to do it, than the HPI instructions supplied with the car. Just try to be careful with the direction, and you'll be fine. It's not difficult, you'll do fine, trust me. Wait til you see a centax style clutch on an on-road car! [X(]

If your having trouble, pick up a kyosho clutch shoe tool.

Makes the job 10x easier, and a lot quicker. I stuggled the first time, bought the tool and its really worth it. And only about $5US
