To reduce friction while disengaged so it can stop spinning.
It will not go together, you will not be able to get the retaining plate to match up with the bolt holes until the splines are meshed together.
The slave cylinder was not able to separate the clutch from the pressure plate. Like dragging your foot as you ride your bike.
Cheap... A couple hundred bucks if you do it yourself. How long do you need this thing to last? If the clutch is just worn, and you have not driven it much w/ the worn clutch, you might be able to get away with replacing just the clutch disk and throwout bearing while leaving the pressure plate and flywheel for the next owner. If the clutch is blown, meaning the throwout bearing seized, the springs on the pressure plate are toast or you drove it with a slipping clutch for too long, the cost will be more, as the pressure plate adds $100 and machining the flywheel is another 30 - 50$.
you could die or just be able to bend all the way back
The Nv5600 used a single disc clutch. So If you have two pressure plates it is an after market clutch assembly and may be a non service able unit.
You should be able to use a 12 bolt. Check your spline count. Standard spline count is 30, you can change the axles to a 35 spline and gain as much as 89% strength. There are many vendors to help you with ordering the right parts. Let them know your use and horse power.
If you just replaced the clutch and pressure plate, the only "little rod" I can think of is in the slave cylinder. It is what pushes the fork in to disengage the clutch. If you did not put it in, you should not be able to shift or engage the clutch. The slave cylinder should blow out the seal when you step on the clutch pedal. The rod is about the diameter of a pencil and 2 inches long more or less?
its probable that the clutch is going and the reason why it works after you start the car back up is your giving the clutch a chance to cool "if even for a second" and the fingers on the pressure plate extend back out enough to do you some good....look into having it replaced.
Pro: you are able to change gear when your engine revs are different from your transmission revs. Con: when torque is high or the difference in revs (see above) is too big, it will slip.
There are several things that happen when you burn the clutch. The basic thing is that you are not able to engage the gear which means that you will not be able to move the car.
The clutch will not engage ,you will not be able to shift./// the clutch will not (disengage ) making it almost impossible to shift gears
A Coach clutch can be purchased directly through Clutch at one of their retail locations. One is also able to order a Coach clutch directly from the Coach website.
