Reply To: Clutch apart but don't really see why it's slipping.

[Jason]

What I meant by excessive or “adequate” freeplay was for the clutch cable.

I dug deeper into the plates and found some had a more polished look to it and probably the slipping I was having sometimes and redline shifting. Then once it slipped it would continue until the next cool down period.

When I took it apart I was to say that my spacer and de-judder plate were installed out of order but I’m not 100% on that because I didn’t pay enough attention to it when I pulled it out.

Today I installed the Energy One clutch pack I mentioned to you last we spoke along with the Indian pinion I got from you. It doesn’t seems to have slightly more slip in the throw out bearing than the stock pinion. I was going to install the Rivera Primo Spring but it is slightly smaller than the stock so I’ll need to get a Barnett Pressure Plate to use it. It would be nice if they sold it separate from their spring. I just want to get a bit more pressure without spending the dough on the Variable setup. A few others on TheVog mentioned they are using the clutch pack with good luck so I’m hoping for the same.

I almost called you this morning but didn’t want to bother you.

2016 XC with Lloyds filter, Tri-Ovals with Right Hand Cat removed, Andrews 413 cams and Maximus tuned by me.

35,000 miles and this is the original clutch. I didn’t have any slipping until my first 6,000 to 8,000 miles with the Cams.

Always used vic oil until a couple years ago I switch to Spectro Semi. I went back to Victory oil after the slipping started but it didn’t resolve it.
