I AGREE!!!!!!!

I have been using the later style clutch discs for more then 50 years. They work much better then the old style solid discs.

Default Re: Clutch disc with spring center

"Solid" clutch discs are usually cheaper, but you will "pay" in the end with things like chatter when engaging, vibration, and extra wear on the input shaft.
Buy the spring loaded disc.
