Great Clutch Installation Trick

I recently installed a complete clutch system including:kit w/ slave, clutch line, and master cyl.
My biggest frustration was trying to keep the slave, pressure plate and clutch disc installed compressed in order to fit in as an assembly.
Here's what I learned:
1. On a piece of wood or other clean, flat surface assemble clutch plate, pressure plate(spacer inserted), bearing, spacer, and slave.
2. Using your palm, push down on the entire assy until the bearing is a far onto the slave as possible.
3. Have a helper thread zipties through the mounting holes (3) in the slave and through the raised portions of the pressure plate and tighten to keep the whole thing compressed.
4. Wiggle this entire assy into place(over the guide pins on the flywheel)and then cut and pull the zipties.
I spent almost an hour and a half trying before I figured this out. With the zipties, it took about 8 minutes.
