New clutch kits come with an alignment tool... I have a few. After looking for one for 10 mins (still not sure what happened to it) I realized I had two disassembled transmissions in a tote under the work bench... works better and hard to misplace!

This is a common issue Nate. I have 4 of them and still had to dig around for an hour to find one. Tool Gremlins love those things, they also love to take my 1/8" drift punch and any Philips driver with a fresh tip. Utility knives, flashlights with good batteries and
10mm quarter drive sockets are also common gremlin delicacy.
Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.

Haha! Yes, all of the above tend to disappear - along with any writing utensil I may need (when I need a sharpie I can find a pencil, when I need a pencil I can find a sharpie ??) And just about everything else... set it down and a minute later its mysteriously moved across the shop!

10mm sockets! For a while, I bought one any time I was at HF, just to keep up with future loses!
The worst is, I usually know how they got lost. When I was doing Mobile Mechanixx, I dropped more than a couple on the ground, and would have them roll into sewer grates. One went into the frame of a Nissan truck and never got back out. I think the lady is still griping about listening to it rolling around. Mud. Leaves. Always 10mm sockets!
