Hello All.
Just waiting on my shop to heat up and thought I ask a quick curious question.
Dose anyone know why the spacer washers on the clutch/brake pivot shaft
have a hexagonal hole in the center? (See Attached) And why not just a round hole? The only
thing I can think of is maybe to let lube travel thru better. I have asked some of my
wrench buddy's and no ideas. It is not important just one of those things that runs
thru my idle thoughts.
Thanx.
SL.

Re: Clutch n Brake spacers?
My bet would be that they are washers that they had in stock. It's a hardened washer that I have seen many times on the countershaft of standard transmissions. In that instance, the hexagonal hole allows oil in. They used what was available.

maybe it reduces potential for squeaking??
