Greetings,
I have a question to pose to the group. I'm rebuilding a Ranger that was quite abused. I have come to the part in the process where I am reassembling the primary drive. The "oil seal" where the gearbox shaft goes through the original inner primary was quite chewed up and the side of the clutch basket nearest the inner primary looks worn. My conclusion is that the clutch basket was rubbing on the inner primary. Assuming everything else lines up and all spacers are correct and in place, has anyone ever found the need to include a spacer on the gearbox shaft to move the clutch assembly further away from the inner primary cover?
Thanks in advance, Norm (Ann Arbor)
