Hello,

I have a problem here...
The clutch steel ball don't come. Seems to be Blocked at the bottom.
Normally she come alone...

What do i have to do?

1: nothing she will move alone when you will ride or use hte clutch
2: You have a big problem...

Do someone have an idea to take off this ball?

Victory!

I push it from the tranny side with a long bar and she come outside :)

an other question if i can :

The clutch hub nut should be torque at 11 to 13 kg - m
I'm athletic and just can do it at 8 or 9 kg - m... with my wrench

Do you use an impact driver to torque it to this level ? Or ther is someting i don't know...

That would help. I step on the brake to tighten large bolts and nuts.

You need to use a decent torque wrench. If you cannot afford to buy one just yet you can borrow one from almost any auto parts store chain. They (Auto Zone, Advance Auto, etc.) have loaner tool programs through which you can borrow almost any common tool at no charge. Check it out online. In the past, I have used those services when I knew I would only need to use a tool 1 time. You simply tell them what you want to borrow, leave them a deposit, take the tool for a few days, and when you return the tool you get 100% of the deposit back. Ed
