It's been either 95 out today, or raining... so, got bored and took some pics of my toda clutch failure from months ago.

yup, definatly was due to installation error. Fire anyone?

{edit} - Inner sprung hub failed after ~35k miles of mild use.









Random OT here... i've also made some extremely pimp *** gasket scrapers latly... a few here on the board will attest to their pimpyness. (buttcoin, will, yack, etc... ) I made a spare out of the last batch... anyone want to pay me for it? Works wonders on decks, tranny case mating surfaces with hondabond on them, etc....

What do you want for it?

I can see the conversation with my son now, after I hand down all my tools to him:

HIM: Hey, what's this?
ME: Son, that's a "D" special. It's a gasket scraper. Very rare. A collector's item now.
HIM: Wow, the infamous "D" that everyone always talks about? The "Shirtless Wonder?"
ME: The very one.

Yeah, your disc looks different from mine. My toda clutch doesn't have that many screws (or whatever thoses things are calle).

 

That is pretty shitty. What did you pay for that, $1000?

I hope you get a new one out of it for free...
