Direct Drive Clutch Lockout with Hinson Pressure Plate & Clutch Disengagment Adj. by Cascade

[BrianEb]

I just finish putting the Direct Drive Clutch cover on. And I put the Clutch Disengagment Adj. by Cascade Innovations On.

Two different problems surfaced.

 

A.) The Clutch Disengagment Adj. by Cascade Innovations works fine if you don't use a Hinson Pressure Plate.

The work around for that problem is get a 1/4" longer 5/16" fine thread set screw. That is what I was told by Packard Enterprises

would fix that problem.

 

B.) The other problem with Hinson Pressure Plate is that the boss hole are to small for the fingers on the clutch lockout mechanism.

But if you stick with the stock pressure plate everything is everything

 

just so people are aware I thought I bring you this message

Hinson, Direct Drive and Cascade all need to sit down together and get on the same page.

But nobody gives a crap about the Banshee anymore

the first part for the longer bolt is correct, but the finger part is not. I run both of them and they are fine. I ordered several extra of the set screws if you need one.

Thank you for the offer on the set screw. Gardener Westcott a place here in Michigan will have the set screw

But how did you get the Hinson pressure plate to work with the lockout?

Did you have to modify it in anyway?

The Pirate Hooker (Bansh-eman) is correct. However, it is worthwhile to point out that Hinson made a slight design change to their Banshee pressure plate about a year or so ago that made it much easier to use a DD lock up clutch with it. If you run in to one of the older plates, then there isn't much you can do to make it work other than sell it on eBay and buy a new one or and OEM plate. :geek:

you might be on to something this project has been about a year or more in the making

It all started when I bought the shift star, then it was the Shift -Pro mechanism by Tudor Performance, Clutch Dis. Adj. by Cascade,

a Performance Eng. Clutch Basket, Dirt Digger Clutch plates, the Hinson Pressure Plate & finally the Direct Drive Lockout system.

 

it took over a year or more to aquire most of these parts. So if Hinson made changes to there pressure plate I might have an older model

thanks again everyone in the Banshee community.

 

peace

no changes it bolts right up. i got my hinson 8 plate setup... about year and a half to 2 years ago.

I might be a little off with the time frame that design change happened. It may have been longer ago than one year. There is a big thread over on PS about it. :thumbsup:
