Looking for the alignment tool part number for a 450c. Thanks

Your 450C Technical manual (TM1102) should tell you the tool number in the Clutch section special tools area and/or the clutch installation section. I am guessing they call for the JDE-52A Universal Clutch aligning set. I am also thinking a universal alignment tool for automotive clutches may work on your clutch for alignment of the disc to pilot bearing.

You will need the gauge to set the pressure plate fingers if you are installing a new clutch disc. I am guessing that is the JD 227A gauge, again that info is in your 450C technical manual. I have some manuals, but not one for a 450C, so I cannot say for certain I have the right tool numbers.
