New clutch ordered!



South Bend Con-O. Ordered a new flywheel too and Peter is going to install a center (pilot) ball bearing instead of the plastic caged needle OEM bearing in the flywheel.



Will be first class setup. Backhoes, big rigs etc have used double sealed ball bearings as pilot bearings for decades, they hold up very well.



Thanks Peter!



I'll post pictures of the assembly when it arrives and of the install.



Wonder if UPS offers SAME DAY delivery :-laf

Close up of ball pilot bearing and OEM needle bearing.



Bearing install was done by Peter at South Bend Cutch and looks very nice.



I will post some pics of the installation process if anyone is interested.
