LOl he doesn't have 4age thread confusion my bad.


I wouldn't touch that clutch. They are VERY hard to drive with. Its really like an On/OFF switch with those units.
Its an old design and the clutch plates dont last that long.

also depends how long ago they welded it and whether they machined the bearing down to suit or not , our last option is to machine the snout , very last option .


Found the part and its on the way :)
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

So was it a parts-mis-match on a swap, or the Exedy clutch design has too small a hole for the stock tube that will need to be shortened?
I'd leave about 10-15mm at least between the fingers & tube for wear.
Any chance it'll ride off the end & jam?
