RESPONSE<\/p>\n

Only know of the AX15, AX5 and the 30RH that came in it.<\/p>\n

INSTALLATION METHODS AND PARTS USAGE<\/h2>\n

Distortion of clutch components during installation and the use of non-standard components are common causes of clutch malfunction.<\/p>\n

Improper clutch cover bolt tightening can distort the cover. The usual result is clutch grab, chatter and rapid wear.<\/p>\n

An improperly seated flywheel and\/or clutch housing are additional causes of clutch failure. Improper seating will produce misalignment and additional clutch problems.<\/p>\n

The use of non-standard or low quality parts will also lead to problems and wear. Only use recommended factory parts.<\/p>\n

A cocked pilot bearing is another cause of clutch noise, drag, hard shifting, and rapid bearing wear. Always use an alignment tool to install a new bearing. This practice helps avoid cocking the bearing during installation.<\/p>\n
