Disk inspection examples
When inspecting the clutch pack, the following pictures can be used
as a reference.
These are best viewed in color by viewing this

If the clutch pack is getting high amounts of heat,
purple, blue, or black color can be seen on the drive plate teeth.

Friction Disks
–
Due to the dark color of the friction material, the
friction disks will appear almost black as soon as they are put in oil.
During inspection, look for glazing of the friction material. Glazing
will appear shiny and feel like glass, even after oil is cleaned from
the friction disk. Not all friction disks look the same and may look
different than pictured.
