Good score?

Post by Indawoods »

I think I have a problem with a warped clutch basket so I picked this up... Ron Ayers price is $209!

I can see the dents in the pic!

You won't believe the difference a Hinson makes until you try one. It's not even close to the same action, smoothness, release.... makes the OEM setup look like...well...a pile.

For $64 you'll likely get what; another 6-8 years of clutch life with OEM type action - I don't really see a problem with that.

My current setup is 12 years old... not bad for a stock clutch basket. I like it just fine except I think it is warped... make a god awful clack every revolution...

So now list your warped one on eBay and offset the cost you spent on the replacement. No need to hide the fact it's used or might be warped. There are people who will buy anything. Trust me.

I'd rather be a smartass like carvr, than a dumbass like.... well, you fill in the blank!

There is a shaft bushing and a washer or two which should be replaced when you install your new clutch. Check out the on-line parts fish and look for the parts. 12mm washers and a short bushing which should not cost much at all - the bushing would be a normal wear item and the washers should be replaced if your clutch has been rocking side to side during use.


P.S. Also should look where your clutch has been 'clacking' to ensure nothing else has been damaged!!

Me neither. But..if you're wanting to improve things, an aftermarket basket is a treat.

'Sides...you didn't really expect me to pass up a chance to give Inda a bad time, did'ja?
