Mix & match clutch parts?

Post by welshrat »

Evening all,
Another question that I will possibly have to try out to establish the answer, however always worth asking just in case its been done before. Any how I have a new old stock QH clutch cover and looking at a new old stock borg & beck drive plate, any problems predicted with mixing the two?

There should be no problem mixing and matching - IF the parts are good. Faulty parts are quite another matter.......

On the basis that I only change the pressure plate when necessary then there is no probem mixing parts

I fitted a 950 driven plate under a midget diaphragm cover plate. It was 1/2 inch smaller across the diameter but worked with no problems. And saved a fortune, as that's all I had. And currently I have a toyota driven plate under a standard 1098 cover.
