Had the clutches apart on my sons LITE, and the where pretty glazed up, Took the DEWALT orbital sander out and put on some FINE sand paper ran around the faces WALA nice smooth surface no glaze, put em in the sink with some nice hot water and dish soap and scotch brite cleaned like new

By the way had the front apart to reshim, .040 clearence :augen41: with a new belt

what is all involved in shimming it? i was thinking of doing mine.

You need the tools to hold the clutch and take off the spider, a center punch, some shime. If you have a Polaris service manuel it shows you.

you should have the weights installed when you check belt cleareance. Poo's have weight to roller contact. that will change your clearance if the weights were out

I clean the sheaves while the sled idles with some green scotch brite up and down the sheaves..

yeah ya have to be careful, as spinning clutches do tend to bite once in a while..

I hear they call a stubby :smilielol:

always just clean my clutch faces with maroon or gray scothbrite
and wipe down with brake clean on a rag after every other ride or
so. no belt slip and i think it makes the belts last longer too. 'course,
i swap on a new belt every year no matter what my mileage.

i break the clutches down every year for throughal[sp?]cleaning every
year too. :div20:
