Clutch Advice
Hey everyone,
I need some expert advice on whether it's time to replace my clutch. I've attached photos of the parts for reference. Here are some details: Model: Southbend Stage 2 daily. Torque Rating: 315ft Clutch Disc: I'm not sure about the wear level, but the material seems a bit thin. There are no cracks that I can see, but I'd appreciate any input on how much life is left. Pressure Plate: There are a few areas where I think I see signs of wear or hot spots, but I'm not entirely sure if it's enough to cause concern. There are no visible cracks, but I'm wondering if the discoloration is a sign of overheating or warping. I initially decided to take it apart because it was slipping under 10psi of boost. |

Ask Southbend what the wear limits are on the disc.
Your pressure plate is hot spotted AF. Stop touching clutch friction surfaces with greasy hands.
