    Gs550 clutch rattle

    Hi my clutch started rattling yesterday so I removed clutch cover .found the clutch hub nut totally stripped of threads .new one ordered .my problem is that I appear to have too many parts inside my clutch .that are not shown on the parts diagram. Pics of extra parts 20180925_172108.jpg

        measure the thickeness of the teels and fibres
        im trying to figure if that was thrown in to make up for wear......

          Sounds like that or a plate or two got lost during a rebuild process and the 'spacers' are for missing plates.
          How many of each came out of the basket?

            There are 7 plates which is normal I think

                Some poorly thought out idea to preload the clutch for extra performance ?
