Just pondering something. I had a throw out bearing go bad, got it apart yesterday. Maybe it's just me, but it looks like it wore on the fingers of the pressure plate to some extent. It's not like the inside edges are sharp, but they just look worn some.
I was thinking about maybe taking it off, laying it down and building a pool of weld on them with a 6011 rod, then grinding them back down with a fine wheel on the angle grinder, mic ing them to get them even. I wonder if the weld would be softer than the fingers, or if welding them would take the temper out of them so I'd be better off leaving them alone?
Mid sized tractor, just used mostly for raking hay.
