| | | | Joined: Apr 2017 Posts: 480 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2017 Posts: 480 | I'm trying to find a new (or rebuilt) clutch disc for my 53 1 ton. The engine is a 1960 235, with a 6 volt flywheel. It has a 9 bolt pressure plate, and a 10 3/4" clutch disc. I ordered a new disc from Jim Carter, but it has been back ordered for some time. I can't find another source for the disc. Does anyone know if a disc from another engine/trans combo that would work? I figure I might have more luck finding what I need if I had another way to look it up.

I am currently digging back in to a 1953 3800 (one ton) with a nine foot bed. I've owned it since 1979, and drove it until 1982 (or so). My wife got me involved in restoring it back in 2002, got the body removed and the frame redone, then things came up. Now I am retired and starting again. If anyone is interested I have photos on Imagur ( https://timwhiteblues.imgur.com/ ). I live way back in the woods in the Ozarks on 40 acres at the end of a 2 1/2 mile private road. Tim

Part Number: K1874-06 Brand: Sachs Clutch Kit -- Standard; 10" Clutch; O.D : 10; I.D : 1 1/8; TEETH : 10T I realize this does not equal your 10.75" measurement, but I don't trust their measurements (on parts such as this that might work). Another spot.Brad

Wrench Fetcher, PhD | | | | | Joined: Apr 2017 Posts: 480 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2017 Posts: 480 | The problem with all of those is they all have a 6 bolt pressure plate, and mine uses the nine bolt. I've found lots of clutch sets like that. Of course, since I don't need the pressure plate, I guess I could throw it away! I guess no one sells just the friction plate by itself any more. I'm going to Jim Carter's tomorrow, and I'll see what I can do. Thanks for the suggestions.
