well im in the process of seeing all parts ill need to change primary clutch...

Any ideas what all should be changed when changing clutch?

Is the secondary clutch pretty much done for since it has no adjustment left(sheive width)?

Is there any spots of excessive wear i should look at...?

what lube/grease do you use to lube the jackshaft and driveshaft bearings?

ok just talked to my mechanic, he explained the whole adjustment of the secondary. I have new belt on it now, so ill do some adjusting with him...

he has clutch pullers for all sleds, so ill just swing by and have him check her out...

kool thanks, i was still wondering that

nothing wrong i guess. when sled would hit 4k it would just sit there and rev for a couple seconds then go. So i thought it was the bearings in the clutch weights, but they were still pretty solid.
