Clutch Basket and Primary Driven Gear Fix

[Jsmith]

Is There a way or some method to fix the back and forth motion between the clutch basket and the primary driven gear the manual says if there is any to replace it. Can it be welded or reriveted or even put bolts in place of the rivets any help or suggestion would help I don't want to have to replace it if I don't have to and save myself $140.00 Thanks J

Are you implying that the rivets are actually not holding it together any more.That would be a first of me hearing this issue.I guess you could weld it or buy an aftermarket basket.When you buy an aftermarket basket you need to drill out those rivets and use the gear and rubber cushions behind it.Then it bolts together.

i actually have the same issue, only mine is all grooved to hell too

If I weld it do you think it would throw the thing out of balance. My basket and gear are in real good shape hardley any sign of wear the rivets and plate look perfect. The movement is the only thing wrong according to the manual

Welding would be my last choice. I think your right it would probably be out of balance. I would drill out the rivets tap the holes and put some bolts in it. And don't forget the loc-tite
