Default RE: Elcon Clutch, Adjustments


ORIGINAL: Apache-



The LB clutch lacks the pins the Elcon one has at the center shaft of the clutch housing.
The wear on the outer surface of the shoe of the LB clutch is uneven. Wear starts at the edge of each shoes as they slightly tilt when engaging.
Where the pin of the elcon one prevents this effect and makes the shoe engage over its full surface.

Is this on the 4 shoes clutch? The have 3 or 4 different clutches. I know many running the LB 4 shoe clutch and they say the shoes last a VERY long time. But thanks for your thoughts.
