87sheerips Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 Ok, so im tearing my motor down for a full rebuild.. What I find is 2 fibers shattered. This happened last year at the drags, really weired. I think im done running the TUSK kits, even though I used to like them alot. What do u guys think, have any of u ran into this before? Quote
jbooker82 Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 I probably would have been done running them the first time they broke. Usually you get what you pay for. josh Quote

J-Madd Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 Whats the condition of your basket? Badly grooved? Quote
shanYE west Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 somthing else has got to be going on in there JD.. Check out your other componets and see how they look. I've been running them for awhile now with no problems. Quote
87sheerips Posted January 15, 2009 Author Report Posted January 15, 2009 Ive got a magnum billet basket, everything looks to be in great condition. The cushions seem to have a lil play in them, so im guna replace those. Other than that , I have no clue. let me rephrase that, my clutch was WAY out of adjustment and I made up for it on the lever... That couldve helped... remember how bad that was shayne? Quote
shanYE west Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 no groving in the basket or inner hub? Quote
87sheerips Posted January 15, 2009 Author Report Posted January 15, 2009 no groving in the basket or inner hub? nope, all looks perfect. All that stuff I replaced like a year ago, all new from fast Quote

locogato11283 Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 so lemme get this straight.. you bought all new good clutch parts from FAST and then bought a tusk clutch to put in it??!! what ever were you thinking??!! :biggrin: Quote
Snopczynski Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 That used to happen to me when i ran ebc and barnett clutches. I shattered two different sets of clutch packs racing at sandfest back in the 90's. I switched over to a cascade heavy duty clutch, and have never had an issue since. Quote
okbeast Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 Been using Tusk clutches for awhile and I definitely ride my stuff hard and have never broken one, not even close. Quote

Its still hard now, but I think I have to step up to prevent this from happening again. Funny thing is, the clutch still worked fine! lol Quote
