I need to order a new 10.5" single Mcloyd clutch plate.

Do I need a metric 22 spline or imperial 22 spline clutch plate for the T5 box?

What do you reckon cost is?

Isn't there machining to do?

Mcloed twin plate clutch.

Buy it complete, machine 10mm off carrier, use existing slave, release arm etc.

Is that it?


And, anyone got a piccie of the carrier, (machined or not)? Trying to picture what needs to be done?

Going to order the twin plate clutch today.

I already have the ARP mounting bolts for the clutch cover.

I will see what the matching is like with my fly and then get it redrilled if necessary and balanced.

Barrie, who balanced yours?
