the center hub again to remove the bolts. Once you get a bolt loosened,
carefully remove it with the shoe and observe the way the spring washers are
stacked. Clean the washers and bolt if you intend to reuse.
CAUTION:
You
should apply heat to the arbor near the clutch bolt threads or you will very
likely break the Torx bit upon attempted removal.
The spring stacks in your Cobra clutch will contain 11 individual springs and flat
washer(s) configured as a 5 ½ stack. See figure 32. This clutch is designed such
that it reconfigured by the customer to achieve different clutch engagements ‘hits’
by changing washer counts and configurations.
CAUTION:
Generally reassemble the springs as you removed them from the engine or as
you received them from Cobra. If you are unsure call the Cobra Technical
Support Group 517 437 9100 and consult the experts.
