The New Forward Clutch Assembly Changes are as Follows:
    • Two more Sprag Elements (28 total)
    • Larger Inner and Outer Race Diameters
    • Solid Steel End Retainer Rings

The new design sprag can be used on models 1982 through 1986, by replacing the entire assembly (637 -- 644). Individual components are NOT inter-changeable.

Important: The wear plate (640) and input thrust washer (660) are not required with the new sprag. Use of the thrust washer and wear plate with the new sprag assembly will cause a misbuild (correct end play cannot be obtained).
