Re: G9 Clutch
Is there some special way to get that big bolt loose so you can remove the outer clutch and install new weights? I'm assuming I have to wedge something in there to keep the thing from rotating while I try to loosen the bolt! HEAT???
Thanks JP |

Re: G9 Clutch
Ok, so I know the answer-go buy an impact wrench! Does anybody know what
size that bolt is so I can get the correct sized socket? Thanks JP |

Re: G9 Clutch
If you look around should be able to get some deep impact 1/2 metric set for like $20. I use them all the time, lot of car wheels take them, etc. I don't know the size but never had a cheap impact break its usually near as much to buy a single socket or two. Amazon has a set for $18 free ship if you buy $25 of the free ship stuff.

Re: G9 Clutch
Yes RH thread, standard. It should not be that tight but they get sticky after being in there for decades. Difficult to grab the clutch without breaking it, Would be better to grab the flywheel on the other side.

Re: G9 Clutch
You mean like wedge a piece of wood in flywheel then smack the other side with the impact wrench? With all the luck )bad( I've been having with this project I'll probably bust a fin!
Appreciate all your help. JP |

Re: G9 Clutch
Ok, making some progress! Got the new weights in the mail today, no trouble heating/removing the set screws to remove the lower pin. Can't see anything holding the upper pin so, how does that one come out? It's the upper pin in the picture. The one with the collar on it.
Thanks JP |

Re: G9 Clutch
Never mind, I found the set screws on the backside. Somebody said this was tedious, I've got another term but it would probably be censored out! I did discover that one of those little micro torches, benzomatic works great for heating up metal in a confined space.

Re: G9 Clutch
Haha, you got that right! I made plastic bushings for part of mine and ran it one summer that way before it broke again. Me and another guy spent half a day messing with it and parts from another one. Next time I found some good used weights so its nice now until it wears through the sheave. That is third time I put weights in it, or maybe fourth not sure.
