Adding more stuff to my parts list for the sled engine for rebuild. Have to wait on a clutch puller to go back in stock. Apparently the hex clutch requires a special tool to help pull it off without damaging it.

A belated R.I.P. to JimD. That hits hard. There’s so many things I wanted to ask him. Bet there might be a bum rush on clutches. See the Max-Torque thread in Engines and Clutches for info and links...

He was just in here replying to a post on the 27th. Seems so sudden. I'm glad I got a couple of his clutches, based on advice he gave. Makes them more special.

Sadly, many such cases, especially when you are up there in age. He was 80, nearly made it to his 81st birthday, which would have been on the first of this month. My dad is 74, and I am not looking forward to that day ever.

I feel you. My Dad is 91 and although he seems healthy and is his usual ornery self, I anticipate and dread the call.
