Anyone ever pull the driven clutch on a Coot?

I will try quality drive, thanks.
I have already gone the Mcmaster and grainger route lol. I SWEAR swear I saw wide diameter springs on there a few months ago but now it seems they only stock springs no wider than 2 1/2".

Oh I JUST found them again. tucked away in a corner of that massive website lol
My other option was just CNCing some 1/4" spacers to put on top and bottom of the current springs. Did that on the scrambler fixed the tension problem perfectly.

Quality Drive Systems is where I got my torque sensitive clutch. Its a much more mannered machine with this style of clutch and delivers strong power throughout the rev band, my old clutch was a basket case compared to the new T.Q. type. Spend a little money and you will be happy you did.

Did you only have to replace the driven clutch? Does it use the original belt? Do you have any pictures of it? I have been hearing about these Torque sensitive clutches and never seen one.
Whats the going price?

Thanks.

I'll get photos to you, I was able to use the original belt and if memory serves me, its a Gates 6007. Carts.com is an excellent source for belts if you find the original belt is too short or long, they are very experienced with the belts that will fit a Coot, and your belt requirement may be different depending on whether anyone has changed the motor or transmission mounting points on your machine, which people like to do.

This is what the torque sensitive clutch looks like. I highly recommend it.

Huh strange can't click for bigger picture says 404 not found. I've been waiting to hear back from Quality Drive Systems for almost 2 weeks. Sent 2 emails.

If you go to the photos in my gallery, you should be able to full size them, I would call Quality Drive Systems, ask to speak with Roy, if he is unavailable his back-up can answer your questions.

Update, installed my new torque sensitive clutch, It really is a night and day difference, drives way nicer, doesn't feel like the engine is fighting the gearing anymore, but alas I still manage to get belt slip. I just don't understand. Everything has been checked can someone confirm, is it just not possible to transmit 8+ HP though one of these CVT belt drives?

I assume you should be able to stall the engine before the belt starts spinning. Even with the new clutch, nice newer drive clutch + sanding, Plus new sanded belt, correct tension, calibrated alignment (moved engine until I had just enough slack to easily change gears)

If I put it in 2nd gear and get speed up and drive into a hill or mud too steep or deep the machine slows and slows and the engine stays constant with no RPM lose until the Coot stops moving entirely with the engine still singing along. Either these drive setups just can't handle a few HP, Something somewhere is off, or My Yanmar L90 Makes hundreds of foot pounds of torque unbeknownst to me.
