Hey chaps, looking for a little bit of help.

Does anyone know the max thickness of a new pre verto friction disc?

My part worn one wobbles about upto 8mm, the linings are a bit gappy in between the rivets on both sides. Before I go pick up a new one I wondered if this was normal.

Cheers

Wobbels? if it isnt flat then throw it away as far as you can..

How do you mean it wobbles? Whats the 8mm measurement?

Well, it's not running true for a start (wobbles like a buckled wheel) and in some places the 'gauge' of the disc is 8mm as a result of the gaps between the friction lining and the centre disc (what the friction lining is riveted to).

So a combination of these issues means that the disc takes up quite a lot of room between the pressure plate and the flywheel, which I reckon is the cause of my clutch binding.

I've never seen another mini friction disc to compare it to, it looks odd to me.

It's the last thing I can think off. No play, or leaks anywhere I've even welded and re drilled all the pivot points etc!

Yup, think I'll order a new un and chuck it in.

Get a new one ;)
