Did you only change the friction plates and nothing else?

I would suggest changing everything as everything needs to match up. A new set of friction plates on old worn out steel plates will more than likely still slip. you should also change out the springs too.

As far as still using your friciton plates, I would say no. 300 miles isnt much, but they have surely worn to the old steel plates. A new set of steel plates, and they will wear even more leaving very little left.

I would buy a complete kit and start over.
