Just curious if anyone has made their own clutch spring compressor. I was thinking maybe a piece of all thread and a couple of washers and nuts. Need to adjust my belt and trieng to save 90 bucks for other stuff any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Yah, I made my spring compressor out of 1/2" all thread and washers and nuts. You will need two pieces of flat steel with a 1/2" hole to put on the all thread tocompress spring. the bottom piece needs to be flat, but the top piece needs to be shaped like a C. Its hard to explain, but you will see.

Nice sounds good I dont have any experience with these clutches but was hopeing when I took it apart I could figure somthing out. Thanks a lot

Sounds like you've done this before. So when you take the clutch apart are the shims obvious or do you have to know what your looking for mine has 25 hours on it and is getting jumpy on take off. Kinda nervous about tearing into this thing but I don't trust my dealer

Dry clutches tend to be a little jumpy at take off, they are not under tension all of the time, so this should be normal.

Rog

what I understand from others experience in this forum when the teryx starts to get jumpy on takeoff and squealing while idling in gear its time for a deflection check

squealing while idling in gear means its tight doesnt it?

Not sure now but I have 25 hours with no adjustment and its jumpy on takeoff and squealing will idling in gear I think I read that the belt has loosened and need to be tightened. Maybe someone else can help

Here is the one I made out of 1/4" flat stock purchased from Home Depot with all thread and two 1/4" bolts and nuts. It works great.



The all thread mounts to a piece of flat stock with two nuts to keep the all thread from turning, the second piece of flat stock with the two 1/4" bolts are drilled to fit the spring width so I can remove the clip. It was very easy to make and does the job.

I tried to answer your PM but apparently your PM box is full and it will not let me answer your PM.

Not yet ill do that when I get home tommorrow from my home computer I think I saw the link in a previous post thanks for the heads up

Gumbo, when you get clutch off compress spring and remove C shaped keeper. Then inside the clutch (where the shaft goes) there are four bearings that you need to remove to release the two pieces. Use a small screwdriver or magnet to remove bearings, they are appx. 3/8" diameter and 3/4" long. Remove two pieces of secondary clutch and your shims will be btween these two pieces. They look like big thin washers. Prolly be two shims one larger and one smaller. Just remove smaller or two and reassemble clutch. Do it once and you've got it.

You da man I feel a lot better about tackling this with all the info. this is gonna sound stupid but it is the rear clutch that ill be pulling right

the home made spring compressor worked great guys thanks for the pics and plans all went great
