Hi Deejay, BB and CyberJack,
Thanks for getting back to me, I was having that same dilemma last night after reading your clutch rebuild Deejay. The grub screw option makes a lot more sense I think except that after reading so many great restoration posts on the forum, I now want to fully restore this SB45. So I a might buy another cotter and cork lining now to get her up and running and then buy the new clutch as part of the full restore which I can start at the end of summer. that will give me plenty of time to get the turf in order and do enough research to do the restoration job properly. I am considering replacing the B&S motor with the Honda GX120...any other engine suggestions?
One other question...can I use the existing inner clutch cone on the new outer cone Nd main body or do I need to replace it as well?
