I was wondering if there were any machinists out there who could give me some info on these clutches.
First of all I have an 86 club car with what seems to be a pretty worn out drive clutch. The one side is wore where it's almost flat and is shiney where you can tell the belt rides. And is almost an inch from the outer egde before the angle starts. The outer side of the clutch. Then the angle starts where the belt should ride deeper. And you can see that the belt never got that far down in. Don't know how deep it should go. My 4 wheeler bottoms out on both clutches. I was curious if there is anyone who can tell me what kind of material that they are made of. I am a machinist by trade and could possibly turn new pieces if I knew what to use. Which would be my preferred method rather than spending $300. I could do both clutches if I need to. From the diagram it seems all the internals ( weights and springs) are connected to the outer piece and the angle where the belt rides looks to be just cup shaped, with a hole in the center. If this link works the piece I need would be #6 although I could make #1 pretty easily also.
That is if I can get the darn thing off. See my "clutch removal" post.
