2 speed clutch spring?
I just picked up a Revo for a decent price and started the tear down/inspect/rebuild process. The guy I bought it from had had it converted it to an electric but I have no intention of keeping it electric. The plan is to for now put the engine from my RC10gt in it(O.S. 18CR-V) until I decide I need something with a little more oomph.TheProblem I ran into is that some of the parts had been pulled out of the transmission and the 2 speed clutch had been locked down with a couple of screws so that it was a single speed. Amongthe parts removed was the spring for the 2 speed clutch. Ireceivedenough parts with the truck to completea forward only transmission except for that spring and a couple of shims. Has anyone lost that spring and found a suitable replacement for it orknow where I can purchase just the spring?
Thanks
Mike

I have yet to find a good replacement for the spring and it is pretty hard to match up.
The spring rate is critical to the shift point adjustment. There is also a small BB that goes between the spring and the clutch pawl. It would probably be best to just purchase a new clutch. If you do find a replacement that works well, let us know.
