When you remove the three Phillips screws (which are probably not Phillips, but JIS), you'll find the nut under the cover. That's also the opportunity to clean out the rotor, because sludge will collect there.

I use an impact to remove and install the nut, but I do it gently. Too much force, and you'll break the aluminum rotor.
That is what I meant about the special socket. Mine had 3 phillips screws that held the cover on. Already clean the gunk that was in there. I will go gentle when I use my impact. I ordered the clutch kit. I already made a tool to hold the centrifugal oil pump rotor while I take the nut off.
When I take the plates off I'm going to measure them.
