AA Clutch disc??
I may pull my engine soon to check bearings and maybe shim the mains, clean the pan etc etc..
I thought that I'd also change the clutch disc, set the pressure plate, and replace the transmission bearings. I only see one clutch disc listed in the catalogs, one pilot bearing and one throw-out bearing..they do not differentiate between the A or AA..the AA is not mentioned... Anyone know? I posted over at the aa forum also... Looking for an exploded drawing of the AA 4-speed too..... Changing back to a three speed is looking better and better! Randy |

Just use the A parts, the AA clutch disc was only 1/2" wider I think.

Re: AA Clutch disc??
Back in the day, AA pressure plate's had higher spring pressures, but the disk was the same.

Re: AA Clutch disc??
If it was mine I'd switch back to the 3 speed. It will be a lot lighter, cheaper and easier to do repairs, and you'll even gain a little speed due to less weight. 4 speeds are a good tranny for plowing or parades.

Re: AA Clutch disc??
I sold a NOS AA clutch disc a couple of years ago it had the BB prefix and had a spring center. Have several used discs also, but would have to look and see if any were the spring center type. Rod
