      I had one smc rr axleclutch.  Very well engineered!  There are a few issues with them.

      I strongly recommend that you contact Mark Schoonover in Wisconsin.  He is a great guy…very experienced!  And he is truly an SMC expert!   He has knowledge of the clutch and lots of parts!   Just the guy you need to look at your clutch!

      I have heard of the pin bolt issue.

      If Mark cant help..nobody can.

      Hope this helps,

      Ron

      I had one that happened to because I got in a hurry and forgot to tighten the gear.  I fixed it by drilling and tapping those holes and installing a 1/8 inch pipe plug.  Then I drilled and tapped 6 new holes and cut the counter bore beside the old ones. Clutch works fine.

      Mark Schoonover is excellent with the clutch also.

      Dale — thanks for the info…may try that…

      Mark gave me a call and I’m going to try to source a replacement housing first, then machine mine if all else fails…

      Thanks!
