clutch spacing wrong

Featured Replies

Hi guys happy thanksgiving

tried to put my tranny in today (out of 81 wagon dl) in my 82 brat gl

everything was fine till i noticed the clutch fork had a tone of play, the t-o bearing didnt touch until the fork was almost against the tranny (maxed out)

so i took the clutch back to see if there was another option and they gave me another clutch this one has only 4 springs instead of 5, otherwise it looks identical befor i go through this again is there a specific clutch i should be looking for? or something else i need to swap?

thanks guys

Did you have the flywheel turned? Could be they didn't turn it to the correct specs?

 

Disc thickness shouldn't make a lot of difference - as long as it's around 1/4" thick it should be fine. I would be looking at the flywheel depth, the pressure plate, and the fork.

it was the wrong clutch, I tried swapping the fork and t-o bearing didnt help, the clutch from the 81 was different and it took care of the problem, the clutch kit for the 81 was 109.99, the kit for the 82 was 79.99, oh well have it in now anyways

thanks G.D.
