Clutch SPRING or SPRINGS

[Old Miner]

Hi Guys.

 

Need some help.

 

I am suffering from a bad case of clutch slip. Does the 1999 second gen TF Venture have a clutch spring plate or does it have several, say six small springs like the older machines.

 

I say that it is an spring plate as shown in service manual. 1 in total. The chap who sells EBC parts on E-Bay says it is a set of several springs. As shown below.

Thanks.

Pretty sure it is the one plate type spring. Early 83-85 1st Gens had the individual springs.

 

See SkyDoc for the upgrade. It will cure your slip.

What Dan said.

The guy on ebay just wants to sell those springs.

If you fix the slip right away before things wear out you will not have to also replace the whole clutch. Slipping will wear out a clutch.

OEM is a diaphram spring which is one spring. The sprinngs the guy on ebay is selling is to a Barnett clutch and pressure plate upgrade kit.

 

 

SkyDoc on this site sells the kits to solve your problem here is a link
