An outer housing for a clutch assembly that allows for the housing to be placed over an already assembled multi-disc clutch pack. The outer housing incorporates a plurality of internally splined grooves, a lead-in chamfer to assist in the alignment of the center line between the housing and the center line of the clutch pack, and an index chamfer on elevated ridges that reside between the splined grooves to assist in the alignment of the splined teeth of outer clutch plates in the assembled clutch pack with said splined grooves.
