Greetings.
I was using my cousin's 42 model A in a tractor pull when the clutch started slipping badly so I immediately pulled back the lever to stop any further damage.. Upon further inspection I found one of the cotter pins in a castle nut was gone and it appears that the bolt is now stripped as I cannot tighten it at all. The nut just spins.
So it looks like it is time to replace the clutch bolts. The question is, do I need to completely disassemble the clutch in order to get the bolts out or can I just remove the whole clutch assembly from the side of the tractor an push the bolts out the back?
I have the parts manual and it is not clear to me how this needs to go.
Thanks in advance for any replies!
