just the clutch disk?

stanger8172 · 02-28-2001, 11:57 PM

After toastin' a ricer again tonight, it's now time to do a clutch-job. I've only had the Zoom 2 clutch set for 13 months and am wondering whether I can get away with just changing the clutch disk, instead of the whole set?

Yeah, you can just swap out the clutch disc since the pressure plate and flywheel don't really wear out.

Just inspect them when you change the clutch disc out.

Also, you might want to change out the throwout bearing while your at it. I've had a lot of throwout bearings going out before, so I change them out any chance I get.

Thanx, rtz, knowing this gives me better options and problably a better clutch-life than ever!
