i just took the 2 shoe clutch off of my 15 fe,i im not sure how the 2 springs are supposed to be mounted back in the clutch (do they sit on the posts or not and which direction they go). any help is welcome links, pics, advice, anything at all

sorry I don't know the answer to your question.....I have a clutch question too.

How do you know if the clutch shoes are bad? They were white and now look a burnt brown. When I open the throttle the engine revs up but the truck only moves very slowly.....I'm hoping it's the clutch because it's the easiest/cheapest thing to replace - but other than it being brown I don't see any difference in how it looked before.

Any suggestions for what the problem could be?

if it takes alot of throttle to get the truck moving, then i would say that it is the shoes, replace them and that should fix your problem

I think I found my problem....

The roll pin that latches onto one of my rear wheels broke....I just got new wheels/tires and when I put them on I must've over-tightened them and broke that pin.

As for your question, are you sure you mean spring - and not shoes? Mine doesn't have a spring....the shoes on my RC10GT face clockwise - meaning the pin is on the most counterclockwise side and the rest of the shoe faces the clockwise posistion.

there are 2 little springs
