Do the cushions come in half “small and half big”?

 

Is the red “gasket” to be re used with a billet basket?

 

I have put two billet baskets with straight cut gears. I used cushions from FAST on first basket and didn’t notice small or big, I used redline cushions on second basket didn’t notice small or big. I did not re-use the red “gasket” I have ran the FAST basket with zero issues. I am confident then second will be fine.

 

 

I am working on a third and I’ll post a picture of this “red gasket” I’m asking about….

Gotcha.

No I have not bought cushions for this basket yet, I just noticed the size difference in the stock cushions compared to the last two stock baskets I did the same thing with. Last two baskets were both stock 1996 engines.
The last two stock baskets appeared to have all 8 same size cushions. Just mangled. They did have the red paper part”gasket” I guess it’s called. One was chewed up so I tossed it and built the basket with cushions from F.A.S.T. They were all the same size.

Second basket I used redline cushions(all the same size) I did not reuse use the red paper “gasket” part. I have not ran this basket yet. These two baskets got straight cut gears. Zero issues with the F.A.S.T basket 42 HARD hours on machine. Dunes/ hill climbs, drag racing dirt bikes, wide open lake bed pulls, lots of trail rocks and clutch feathering to rock climbing in Johnson Valley (Look up King of hammers)6 heavy duty springs, none of this half light and half heavy spring for easier pull.

I am now working on a third basket..will reuse stock gears, it’s from a 2006, engine has been rebuilt before. I did have to grind the basket rivets. so I can not guarantee that it is a 2006 basket, but it is stock. the cushions are clearly 4 smaller then the other 4. Couple of them show rubber break down.


Is there a soft cushion and a hard cushion?

Do I reuse the paper red “gasket”?

My Plan is to get F.A.S.T or redline cushions again.

Tedder wher you at?

Just verify with Jeff or?  when you order.

My '04 was like that. It was years ago, but the way i remember it. the assumption was the small ones were wore ( hence the slop) & dont need the red cushion
