Default Front Clutch Assembly

I think the front clutch assembly went out on my G-8 yesterday. I was just riding along and it was like someone throwed it up in neutral. She don"t move unless you pusher her now. I just redone the rear with the Plowman's belt and pulley's. Do I have to buy a complete new front clutch or can I just buy the repair kit( which is the weights)? Please help

Check shifter linkage first, don't see how a primary would just quit, without some kind of noise or warning.

Shifter linkage fine. Yes it had been making some noise, didn't know it was coming from that though.

Take the cover off and see what doesn't look right.

This is what I found when I took cover off. So, do I can replace just the one that is broke or do I need to go ahead and replace all three and be on the safe side?

Me being me, I would replace all 3. But look at the other 2 and see what wear in on them. Also, Curti in the G8 club may have a whole assembly for sale.

Hot Rod my clutch weight broke too on my G14 which looks basically like yours . Only thing mine broke on I will call the rod side not on the weight like yours. It cracked my cover . I ordered a kit from Golf Cart King which had all three weights with the plastic washers. My washers were about all gone . One of my plastic slides was wore out too so had to order those from another source. Only thing I didn't order was the pins. Mine turned out not too bad. Had to use a little heat on some of the set screws cause they had loctite. I basically have a new primary now . Works great.
If I was you I would order a weight kit with all three and they come with the plastic washers. Mac suggested that to me and glad I did it .
