Re: Clutch Chatter
For what it's worth. Back in the forties and fifties when my cronies and I were running the thirties and forties Fords, we would all have the same problem in first gear. Ninety percent of the time it was the springs in the disc. Most times they would be cracked. Occasionally they would be very loose in the disc. Remember we were using Borg & Beck USA made assemblies and other USA manufacturers. We attributed it to being too heavy going through the gears and "spitting skins." I can just imagine what quality we are now receiving from the importers. Just a little input. Make sure you inspect the springs in the disc carefully before buttoning it up.
