1986 Yamaha G2 Secondary Clutch Uh-oh...
Hey guys n gals - i have a 1986 yamaha g2, its lifted 4", running 20" off road tires. I have replaced the primary clutch with a high performance comet from CPP. it works great
So i thought i would beef up the secondary clutch. so i ordered a jakes power kit, new ramp shoes, and a new stock belt. well after installing all of this today i now have both secondary sheaves bent. you can see the wobble in them when you push the cart forward with the seat open. So my question is. now what? obviously need to buy more parts. but lets say my budget allows 300$ right now for parts what do i buy? im scared to buy anything at this point.. seems im making it worse by trying to gain more hill climbing abilities. Please Help.. Your responses are appreciated! |

Call Plowman and tell him what you have and want to do . I bought his performance kit cause I to wanted to be able to pull hills better. He sold me his yellow spring along with his secondary clutch and his belt. You can get his kit less than your budget.
I am running 22's with a 4" lift kit. Pulls hills great and still has good top end speed. |

Re: 1986 Yamaha G2 Secondary Clutch Uh-oh...
i am a little concerned about the fact that the high torque springs have no tabs for the holes b3 setting, i understand that b3 is for preload, and the stiffer springs do not require preload.. but what about keeping the ramp shoes pushed against the ramps....??

Re: 1986 Yamaha G2 Secondary Clutch Uh-oh...
I would start with a cut secondary sheave, they have them at CPP. The cut will give you more low gear for really steep hills. The CPP one is heavy not a cheap thin one, about 85 so not bad on the budget and really if yours is worn (dished from belt wear) it should be replaced and odds are you will not wear this one out. The fixed side on mine is steel it never wears, never bends unless someone bends it. I have seen some carts with an alum fixed. It can be normal for the sheaves to wobble just a little but not much. Never use any tools on the sheaves only remove using the center hub on any clutch. I do wedge a 2x4 against them to help assembly, but its wood and I don't angle it over its just a spacer to hold it in the center.

Re: 1986 Yamaha G2 Secondary Clutch Uh-oh...
i have ordered both new sheaves, and that should complete the total rebuild of the secondary clutch. i cant find a umax spring anywhere... my dealer is a powersports dealer so they have to order golf stuff. but they cant find umax in the computer catalog... so i am still not sure what spring i put in.. either stock on b3, or the jakes power spring i have.. also. should i use the shaft spacer instead of the snap ring on the input shaft??
