Powwr major clutch question.

Post by RH »

Evening all,
Just split my Power major today, to replace the oil -seal between clutch and gearbox. Very straightforward.
I see though, that the bolts heads in the clutch fingers have worn to about half what they would be when new, (The bolt Heads that contact the thrust race)
Should these be replaced?
Thrust bearing seems as good as new.
If they should be replaced, (The heads are maybe a bit under 1/8" thick now) Where do I find them, and do I need to set them in exactly the same depth as the old ones?
...and yes, I don't know much about clutches, except that this one works well and is a double clutch.

Any light shed will be most appreciated!

Richard.
