Re: Back to work on the 39

Hey RJR,

I would be cautious about having your clutch disc re-sintered as that is what I did on my '39 Six and ended up with an unacceptable level of clutch chatter. I took mine to a proper brake and clutch facility and they riveted new rings on my old disc - it looked fine, but when all assembled, I discovered the problem. Pulling everything apart again to replace the clutch components was a big job, and DEFINTELY not worth what I 'saved' by going the 'cheap' route. The components I got from Kanter had the Packard script Packard Don referred to, and engaging the clutch is now smooth as silk. Wished I'd have known. Chris.
