Re: Need help!!! Please!!
Mitch,
Even though hind sight is said to be 20/20 at times, in your sincere opinion, if a Model A pressure plate, in lieu of a V-8 pressure plate would have been installed, what would be your best guess as to the chances they would have driven their truck all the way to Lexington? |

Re: Need help!!! Please!!
I haven't heard of heat insulators on pressure plate springs. It would seem that if the plate got hot enough to damage the springs, the disc would be smoking.

i am not sure if all the v-8 plates are made the same as this particular one or not. i have never really had a need to study them up close to see if the finger pivot pins are all held in by a snapring or if it's unique too this one. i dont have any more here to look at so i am hoping someone that deals with this stuff all the time and might have a few to look at can tell us if its the same or different. maybe James Rogers who sell's these can check out one of his and post a result. to try and answer your question i guess its probably a freak thing and any style clutch set up could be vulnerable to some kind of breakdown but the way this failed really sucks.. mitch |

Re: Need help!!! Please!!
I'll look at one today. I'll check an NOS one and a replacement and report back.

The Flat-Rate Book specifies a forklift ?

Re: Need help!!! Please!!
I have several of these Fox locking band assembles and after looking at each I draw the conclusion the suffix letter (or letters) was stamped at a later date than the A18305 because the spacing is random and not always in a straight line.

Re: Need help!!! Please!!
OK, I have 2 NOS 9" for pressure plates part number 09A-7653 for models 1935-41. I alsohave 4rebuilt 9" plates for the same years and all of the above have a cotter in the end of the pin Mitch shows. I also have another rebuilt one that has the end of the pin upset with a chisel across the end. I know where I got this one but don't know the application.
Hope this answers some questions.

Re: Need help!!! Please!!
Mitch, thanks for looking for a name.
Upon research, it turns out there are many lengths available. I never knew they existed! Would you mind measuring the ones you have, thanks dave
