91 Club Car Drive Clutch Options

[Springbok]

That's awesome. I just picked up a '90 gas Club Car project and will be needing a drive clutch for sure here soon. Pre-1997 drive clutches are typically hard to find and they seem to be either old and beat up, or brand new and $400+.

What would the internal differences be? If any?

I was a little bored yesterday, so I thought I'd do a side by side part number comparison of a 95, and a 97 drive clutch...

Every single part (sheaves, weights, buttons, spring, etc.) are all the same between the two years!
The ONLY difference is mainly just the part number for the complete clutch as a whole,
The 97 however, has an addition to the 95... the red plastic ring (plug) on the face of it that covers the 3 threaded holes!

I also checked the difference between a 93 and a 98 drive clutch... also all the same!

Just thought I'd share that tidbit of info!

Thanks for that confirmation!
