Husky 390CR 3 piece clutch

[subarumy98]

HI

Our 390CR clutch has 3 pieces ot the basket assembly. The middle portion being a steel disk with ring gear, and there should be 6 rubber donuts sandwhiched between the inner and outer ally parts.

Are these indeed rubber ?
Anyone have dimensions ?
Suggestions on what I can substitute with ?


Thanks in advance

I'm not all that familiar with Husky's but I pulled out of an event once when my 89 KX250 was making horrible noises, I thought it had done a big end but turned out to be a cush drive system in the clutch basket. Turned the oil into real sludge with all that ground up rubber.
I found some rubber mat the right thickness, found a tube the right diameter to match the basket, sharpened the end of the tube to form a punch & cut out some rubber bits to fit, rubber was nothing special but you wouldn't want anything too soft. Put it all back together & it ran fine.

Young Trev,

I have just pulled out my CR390 owners manual. Page 30 point 5 refers to radial play between the cogwheel and the clutch ring. Says, `If so replace the rubber buffers with new ones' Simple if you have ths suckers.

Also checked a parts manual for a CR 240 (circa around you bikes age) and it clearly shows the rubber buffers. It gives the description as `Damping Element'  Part # 16 11 152-01.

Hope this helps a bit. Let me know how you go getting them. I may be able to get them, but no promises.

All the best

Thanks for all the suggestions guys.

In the interests of time, I fashioned up rubbers out of door stoppers, turning them in a makeshift drill / sanding arrangement.
They came together all fine.
Frame has returned too.

All we have to do is re-assemble everything, and get ready for the race on 10 Nov.

Will keep you all posted.
