My 850 isn't shifting very well. It acts as though the clutch is sticking or not releasing fully. I opened it up to have a look today.
First photo: clutch actuator arm. Does this look like a stock Commando actuator? Or is it the Atlas arm? The only photos I could find online were on atlanticgreen.com. From those, I think this is the Commando part but I'm not sure:
Clutch plates. I'm running a 750 clutch pack with an extra steel plate and a 750 pressure plate. Here is what the friction plates look like. The substrate is aluminum. Does anyone recognize these? I've never seen Commando plates quite like these. I'm guessing early Barnett? (the grabby ones):
I bought a set of Surflex plates to replace them, but they dont' fit! The splines don't match the clutch center, they're a little too "fat". I could make them fit with some filing and sanding, but it looks like a long tedious job. Has anyone run into that before? I thought Surflex plates were supposed to be good quality. Here's a photo:
