It's been a while since I put one of these things (4L1) back together. With the clutch housing and basket fitted the splines are not flush with the front of the basket. Is that right? Both thrust washers are in. However they seem identical and I see from the parts sheet they are different numbers. Can anyone confirm how thick they should be please? Cheers.

Hmm. On fowlers page they're the same part number. So i think my question is then, should the splines be flush with the front of the basket?

Hi Look on page 5; rdlccrazy.proboards.com/thread/34544/rd350lc-engine-rebuildCant remember what it looks like without the lock washer and nut, but if you trial fit yours it should look like mine. The 2 large shim washers are the same part, so no difference in thickness. Have you changed anything else whilst the clutch was off ? Dusty

Hi Dusty, I'd forgotten about your thread. I'll trial fit it and see how much of the central shaft protrudes compared to yours. I did change the basket whilst it was off, remove the rivets and then fit a new basket to the back gear. However when I compared the old basket and the new they appeared the same so I don't think anything is amiss there. However, if when I trial fit it it looks different to yours I'll have to quadruple check! Thanks. Paul.

Sorry I didn't answer sooner, seem to have missed it. My thoughts are the basket should sit flush with the end of the shaft, but I really cant remember now. You wont have to get it super tight to see if yours ends up like mine, so worth a go. Do the gear teeth line up nicely ? Dusty

Right, I couldn't resist having a quick go. I now feel slightly stoopid! There is some end float in the clutch shaft, and when it is pulled out the splines fit flush. When the tab washer and nut are fitted it's as your picture Dusty. I'll torque it all up tomorrow after a good nights sleep (And a hard days work!). Thanks again. Nothing to see here...
