I am having a problem adjusting the fingers on a new clutch. I have made
a nice tool for the proper height of the finger the problem after adjusting
and it is nuts on I go to stake and it all moves. I guess I am not a staker..
By the way I am using locktite..Would using nylock nuts be ok? It seems
that would be the answer verses stake.. Any help would be Great.:
 
I believe the nylock will take up to 250 degrees. Wonder if the pressure plater gets
to that level. Of course it is something to consider ..
 
Well I can take credit for the idea of the nylocks.. I was looking around and found a thread
that Tom Wesenberg said he used locknuts so the light went on! Not sure If he used
nylocks but said locknuts. So I found some today and they are MM which that tells me
this pressure plate is from afar.. Which is ok as long it works.. I am lucky no body on
the chassis so easy Peasy to remove motor and make the install and fresh up the paint.
Thanks for the response from you fella's
 
I used locknuts and staked them once I was happy with the adjustment as there was very little thread engagement on the plastic part. I ended up with a .625" finger adjustment
