G16a drive clutche, R and R
I posted this in the G1 thread, with no responses, and I am kind of up against it on time.
I bought a new clutch, and the bolt for removal from a sponsor here. The cart is down at the lake almost 600 miles away, so I am trying to be prepared and take the tools I need for this job next weekend. I have searched hi and low on this board for detailed drive clutch instructions, but no luck yet. I went home at lunch, removed belts and then the cover off the old clutch. Remove stock bolt, then screwed in the removal bolt. I see how the removal bolt works, it bottoms out in the crank and pulls the clutch off as you turn it. My inner sheave is turning, as I turn the bolt, I am holding the outer sheave from moving with a large screwdriver between the three arms. I hesitate to put vise grips on the inner sheave, for fear of ruining it. Any advice would be appreciated very much! |

Re: G16a drive clutche, R and R
Are you using and impact gun or are you trying to do it with a wrench?

Here is a tip that may help someone. I am probably not alone when I say that I don't have a lot of metric bolts laying around, zero. Lots of standard, large selection but no metric. So I used the long bolts that go through the "bag well" to the frame and they are the same size and thread as the two puller holes in the outer sheave. Now I will go to the hardware and get some new ones for the bag well. |

Re: G16a drive clutche, R and R
For those of you that don't have the special tool required to take the drive clutch apart, I found a way that may work for you.
When replacing the rollers/fingers, the spider needs to be separated from the inner sheave. I took an old starter/generator belt and put it on the drive pulley, then tightened the belt up in a vise, to securely hold the drive sheave from turning. Lightly heated up the center of the spider to loosen the loctite, and used my pry bar between the standoffs to back it off. Worked perfectly. Hopefully this helps someone down the line. |
