So I got a CLUTCH KIT from DP that is complete with fibers, springs and Barnett steel plates. Is there any other part I need to replace? well besides the cover gasket, also is there any other special tools I will need to change the clutch? So far I cant get the big lock nut off. The whole clutch center seems to be moving, as well as there is a stake in it that I cant seem to get out! Please help me if you have done this before


Thank You

whats a clutch kit?

here is what i got

Barnett Kevlar Racing Clutches

When it comes to building clutches for the meanest engines in the world, nobody beats Barnett. The new K-9(TM) Kevlar clutch uses CNC-machined 6061-T6 clutch plate cores for more drive-tab contact with the clutch basket and maximum durability.

that what it says on the web page for it.

it something like that one.

hmm interesting, thanks

What the heck special tool would ya need to replace the clutch? Did ya order a new basket also? Steels, fibers and springs should only take 1hr max to change out. Be sure to soak the fibers in oil before installing -- some say overnight, I say til they're good and oily.

I would agree, the clutch replacement doesn't need any thing special...just remove the bolts that hold the springs, take off the pressure plate and pay attention to how it came out so you can put it back in the same way with the new parts....as Chain said, soak the fibers before you install them and make sure you remove the old gasket material and install a new gasket.
Good Luck!!
