Has anyone fitted a sureflex clutch upgrade , (the steel , composite and dished plate ) Part number S1816. This is meant to be an upgrade to the standard clutch . I have just got 1 , the drawing with it is a bit unclear , could someone let me know the order the plates go in ? From what i can see the dished steel plate goes in first followed by 1 of the thick steel plates and then alternating composite /thinner steel plates and finishing with the 2nd thick steel plate , is this correct? Any info greatly appreciated .
As far as I can see the order is (inside to outside) 5/4/7/3/7/3/7/3/7/3/7/3/7/3/7/3/7/4 5 = spring plate (x1) 4 = Different thickness steel plate to 3 (x2) 7 = Clutch plate (x8) 3 = Steel plate (x7)
Thats how ive just assembled it , and i have done a couple of standing starts (im freezing and its pissing down ) so i havnt taken it for a proper ride yet . This all started as i thought the clutch was heavy so ordered an oberon slave cyl. , then 1 thing led to another and i thought i would strip the clutch , it was worn out 2 steel plates already in there and measuring 35.5 mm for the stack . More interestingly there was no dished metal plate , which i believe there should be ! which then added to my confused state with the sure flex clutch . Any way any advice/info/reassurance would be appreciated .
