A method for aligning a clutch assembly having a clutch shaft and a housing with a plurality of threaded first fasteners. The method includes the steps of attaching the clutch assembly to a driveshaft of an engine mounted on a support frame having a plurality of second threaded fasteners. The method includes the steps of mounting a support plate to the housing and support frame and extending the first fasteners and second fasteners through mounting holes. The method also includes the steps of deflecting the clutch shaft relative to the driveshaft and disposing spacers over the first fasteners and second fasteners adjacent the support plate. The method includes the steps of engaging the first fasteners and second fasteners with third fasteners to seat the spacers against the support plate and fixedly securing the spacers to the support plate. The method further includes the steps of assembling and tensioning a drive belt assembly operatively cooperating with the clutch shaft such that the deflection created is negated and the clutch shaft is brought into alignment with the driveshaft of the engine.
