Wear on clutch ramps - I mean sheaves
My clutch ramps, both drive and driven have a noticable concave pattern of wear, I have disassembled, cleaned and inspected all the moving parts and reassembled, I was just wondering what to expect in performance loss, like getting hung up in the mid range? I did a search and read about clutch ramps actually wearing so thin that they split in two! so maybe mine aren't as bad as I think? Thanks.

Re: Wear on clutch ramps
I believe you mean the sheaves that the belt
is squeezed by. the ramps usually refer to what causes the sheaves to move in and out. |

Re: Wear on clutch ramps
Yes, I meant the sheaves, they are no longer flat, I'm thinking it probably wouldn't be a good idea to send in a piece like this for the upgrade trick in the sticky would it?

Re: Wear on clutch ramps
I wasn't quite understanding the process, are you implying that material can be cut off the sheave faces where the belt rides (re-surfaced) like they used to do brake discs on an old car? If thats the case than yea I'll send the clutches off, I just didn't want to send junk to the guy.
