Good To Know

Q: Is this the engine-side or wheel-side clutch? A: This is the primary clutch, which mounts to the engine crankshaft and drives the belt.

Q: Do I need to replace the belt at the same time? A: It is common practice to inspect or replace the drive belt when servicing the primary clutch so the new assembly and belt wear together.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
