I was redoing my clutch and when I took the pushrod out the ball was melted on it. So I went and sanded the ball smooth and put it back in. I put it all back togeather and everything work fine untell I tried to put it in gear and the clutch doesn't allow me to push it while it is in gear with the clutch held. The clutch is really hard to pull in. I'm thinking I need a new pushrod and ball but I dont know if that will fix the problem.
If someone has a spare pushrod ball they want to sell please pm me. I only need the ball because I already have 2 spare pushrods.
Thanks

Is the clutch suppose to be hard to turn when you pull in the cutch. When I go to turn the presure plate it wont budge it just turns the hole basket. Then When I put the clutches in dry with out oil it turns easy. Is it suppose to do that?
