Machining Stock ezgo 4 stroke Drive Clutch
Getting ready to get my stock 4 stroke EZGO drive clutch modified to use on my 16HP Vanguard. The Vanny has the 1" X 3" crank stub.
I have seen 3 threads about machining the clutch. Billys Buggie had a sleeve machined to fit inside the stock clutch & then pinned in place. Pizzamaker had is crank stub machined to a taper to match the clutch. I have straight shaft so don't want to do this DirtySouth did some kind of machining to the clutch then drilled & tapped holed for set screws to hold it on to the crank stub. Not sure if a sleeve was made or what. Questions: How long should the sleeve be What is the finish ID of the sleeve to fit over the 1" shaft What type of steel should the sleeve/insert be made from Do you cut off the crank stub to bring the clutch closer to the block I think if I buy by buddy a few Stroh's he will do it in his machine shop Billys Buggie Modified clutch |

Re: Machining Stock ezgo 4 stroke Drive Clutch
Had my buddy machine mine as deep as original and had it broached. I also ended up cutting about one inch off my shaft to line up the clutches. test fit a couple times and make sure you don't go to far. I didn't need any shims.

Re: Machining Stock ezgo 4 stroke Drive Clutch
When you say "machined mine" do you mean made an insert. The stock clutch is already bigger than 1"

Billy's is the way to do it, i tapered mine because it started out as a generator taper engine.

Re: Machining Stock ezgo 4 stroke Drive Clutch
like pizzamaker said like billies. my buddy machined the inside of mine big enough to except a new sleave that was broached for 1/4" keyway. He slid it in and put 2 pins opposit sides to keep it from moving. If you look at billies buggy build that is exactly like that.
