Patmac6075 Posted October 26, 2021 Share #1 Posted October 26, 2021 Ok, so it’s not that bad, but getting that clutch boss spring-a-ma-jig thing back on was way tougher than I’d expected. So I was looking for those markings (in some cases dots, in others square cut outs)on the clutch fiber plates to line up with the clutch boss….I don’t see anything resembling marking on the Barnett clutch fiber plates! So I just set them in there as they came out of the oil bath….Is this going to be a problem? Second issue, just got it all reassembled and I cannot pull the clutch lever in? Are these two issues related? What’s the work around? Also, just to be certain, I did not mess with the pushrod or ball bearing…as far as I know, they didn’t even move. Your input will be most appreciated Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcarl Posted October 26, 2021 Share #2 Posted October 26, 2021 It would help if you can post a picture of the plates, they do need to be lined up proper I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saddlebum Posted October 27, 2021 Share #3 Posted October 27, 2021 (edited) It sounds like you installed too many parts. If you got the Barnett clutch complete with a full set of discs,The only parts required are those included in the Barnett clutch Kit. Also you take the the OEM retainer wire half disc and the two thin washers on either side of the disc and install them into the nearest trash can as they are not used with the Barnett clutch pack. Also there are no alignment markings to concern yourself with as with the OEM clutch pack. Edited October 27, 2021 by saddlebum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is all replaced by a full disc. in the Barnett kit which comes with the proper number of discs and steels and eliminates the need for the half disc, washers and wire retainer.

Patmac6075 Posted October 27, 2021 Author Share #6 Posted October 27, 2021 Thanks Saddlebum….it worked! Kind of one of those “mixed emotions” moments….I’m totally stoked it worked, on the other hand….I’m bummed that I bought a new retainer spring ($10 for the part and $10 to ship…thanks partzilla). No matter, it’s back together and all because of the helpful crew here on the site. Thank you 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
