530 clutch replacement

Randy G · Jul 13, 2018

Rebuilding the clutch on my 530. Does this part B3277R adjusting disk look reusable or is it too pitted? It started slipping yet the facing disks look good. The sliding drive disk B3127R matching side is pitted as well which I am replacing. Opinions welcome.

Hit it with a coarse sanding disc take the shine off.

That model has the pulley bearing running direcly on the crankshaft. Important is to get you hand around it and lift up and check for bearing play. They were bad about cutting a bearing grove in the crankshaft and would really chatter when trying to engage. Very bad design from Deere.

I like to clean them up with a sand blaster. I don't think the pits would matter much ? It could always be resurfaced.
