The original subject was Re: New Holland TN70A Clutch and PTO adjustment.
Split my TN70a at 3000 hrs to replace the clutch. Existing clutch assembly is the LUK 11 dual stage with the 3 paddle pto disc. Supplier I ordered the new kit from (Superior Tractor Parts in Dakota City Iowa), told me the kit he had for my tractor was an LUK kit, which is what I asked for. All of the bearing sizes were confirmed so the purchase was made. Yet the kit that arrived today does not have the LUK stamp on the face of the pressure plate, nor any LUK packaging. Research I've done tells me this kit is made by Hy-Capacity. It appears to be well-made, (for whatever value an eyeball assessment can provide). Hy-Capacity clutch kits are being sold by a good many others which gives the impression they apparently have a respectable reputation. This is why I'm checking in here to learn the opinions and experiences from Harry in Ky or others who have split many tractors and may have some knowledge as to the quality of the clutch components made by Hy-Capacity. I had preferred LUK but hopefully someone has some good things to say about Hy-Capacity parts. Thanks in advance for any input. -- Steve in Wi.
