    Vanguard 18 transplant needs a clutch

    I've got a used Vanguard 18 that I'd like to put into my Attex Chief 400, but it needs a clutch. Can anyone recommend what clutch I should look for? I will be using this for trail riding. I've been searching the forum but haven't seen anything specific mentioned.

    Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

    agreed. a lot of people will tell you that you have to change the spring in the secondary, but you don't HAVE TO. I have several machines running the 2 stroke spring that work quite well

    I agree you dont have to change the secondary spring but like chiefdiesel found out in heavy loads and climbing he had issues.

    Thanks for the recommendation. I'll order one up. I won't be hauling any heavy loads, but there could be some hills in its future. I'll tackle that later if it becomes an issue.

    In a machine that light, it probably won't ever be an issue. My Wild Wolf with the 18 Vanguard (same basic machine) goes anywhere I point it and has never had the spring changed

    Even places it shouldn't, even with lights.


    My new beer holder spilled some on the trails - in it's hair and down it's throat.
    Joe Camel never does that.
