Forward & Direct Clutch

Reassembly

1. Position direct clutch assembly with clutch plate end up, then align direct clutch composition-faced clutch plate teeth one above the other to make forward clutch assembly installation easier.





2. Install forward clutch assembly input shaft first into direct clutch. While holding direct clutch housing, rotate forward clutch back and forth until the forward clutch is seated, see image. When properly seated the forward clutch will be about 5/8 inch from the tang end of the direct clutch housing to the end of the forward clutch drum.

3. Grasp direct and forward clutch assemblies to prevent their separation, then position assemblies with input shaft up.





4. Install direct and forward clutch assemblies. When correctly seated, the direct clutch housing will be about 7/16 inch from case cover face, see image.
