New clutch
 

my spare xr drive has a worn clutch,,, what is the best way to repair it,,install new forward and reverse gears,,,or can i just install a new clutch,,,iam thinking new gears also,,,whats do you guys say???

Depends on what the surface the cone rides on, looks like. I have cleaned them up with a dremel flap wheel while spining them in the lathe. The cone usually gets the most wear, unless it was locked up??

their you go,best source of information you can get on drives anyplace.

So how much material do you take off doing it that way. Knowing the specs of that cup I would not think that would be a good practice to pass along to the boating community.

I just polish the surface. I am guessing, maybe, .0002". Never tried to measure it.
Note: Don't try this at home. It may not be an approved process.

LOL I like the last line.

Hi TWIN-SPINS.
When mating new components with old i always hand lap with fine lapping paste seems to work very well.

Is that KY lapping paste or crest? I just what the correct stuff.

What leads you to believe your clutch is worn?

don't confuse lapping compound with KY jelly. the spousal unit will NOT be happy.

Oh No!! Hopefully you dont speak from experience on this one!! :)
Another bit of advice to not try at home!!!
(Sorry, couldnt resist)

Seriouly.. what does make you think you need a new cone Twin Spin??? Is it slipping when it engages?? Or what.

Hi,
I use 320 grit silicon carbide oil based below are a couple of examples of before and after lapping on a hydraulic motor valve plate.
