Some of the manuals show you a diagram of the tool so you can make it.

Pretty sure the D21/210/220 takes the exact same tooling as any big frame Farmall from 806 and up.

I just replaced both clutches in my 160, as Charlie said my manual gave me exact measurements for my local machine shop to make me one out of aluminum. $25, so much better than the plastic ones that can break or flex.

This is my experience, and I always try to do things right- the clutch disc is so close to being centered- gently tighten the pressure plate bolts ; look from behind , and center the disc with a screwdriver or something like that in the pilot bearing - its very simple

Maybe I’m just lucky, but I haven’t used a clutch alignment tool for the past ten years, just eye ball them and slide the tractor together. Good luck if you need one you can make one out of wood on a wood llathe, unless extremely heavy clutch plate.

That may work on a tractor with just a transmission clutch, I wouldn’t attempt it with a dual stage clutch such as in my 160. The clutches can’t take misalignment and will bend very easily. The entire clutch assembly weighs 70 lbs.

Finally got the MK II 3700 engine bolted up this morning on the 210 and did some painting. I only have 3 days a week to work on it due to working 12 hour shifts Monday-Thursday and have other things to do also but it's coming along.
