My buddy Normable1973 needs a new clutch

[thebuggyman1]

Shims???
Avoid dealing w/ RR. He's trying to sell you "special" bands that are not special. The drums can be turned .030" with no problem, any more than that and things need to be test fit to make sure it's OK.
Here is an old post on the drums: http://www.6x6world.com/forums/trans...html#post46427

For some reason I was hearing squeaking and the clutch was awful close to the sprocket(chain) that's what I think happened chain somehow hit clutch & broke c clip? All that got destroyed was the buttons,spring,and outer sleeve. I think I need shims . My drums are also in bad shape the guy I bought it from just put new band in it(I also have the old ones) I wire wheeled them but not much better. (RR says he has bigger bands so you can turn the drums .020 ) what do I do??? HELP

Thanks everyone I'm ordering one now, I just don't understand why mine came apart. I completely took my t20 apart and cleaned everything before reinstalling it. Norm..

Norm, did the two helix halves just fly apart? The C-clip that holds the internal helix can have a nasty tendency to break on some old units. Your clutch might not be complete junk if you can just replace the clip or the inside helix (if it was damaged). Don't toss it; there's always a need for spare parts....

The T-20 uses a clutch that has a 7/8" bore.

These say 3/4 inch bore is that right? I thought it was 1 inch. I'll order one for that price. Thanks Fred

No prob Norm, just make sure that you measure the shafts and bores and such like Dan67 mentioned.

Depending on your engine it is either a 1" bore or a 1-1/4" bore. T-20 is a 7/8" bore. My B&S 23hp vanguard is 1".

Hey Norm, sorry to hear about your clutch issue. I'm posting this thread so everyone, if any doubt, will know where I purchased my clutches. These are stock clutches for our machines. They are very competitively priced:

I hope this will help you out. I would also check ebay as well!
