I have a 1946 1/2 ton that I want to replace the clutch. Current clutch is an 11". Everything I have read said it calls for a 9 1/2 " . Any thoughts?

It looks like a 10 3/4" was optional on the 3100.

If you want to go to the smaller clutch disc you'll also need to swap to a 6 bolt flywheel and pressure plate.

Not to old yet You know my 51 6400 came to me with an original clutch that you would think was the biggest they used. It works as easy as pie,is smooth and I know it has hauled several swamper loads of corn out of the soft field. So go figure !!

The clutch in my '57 LCF was completely frozen mid throw, mouse urine had seized the throw-out bearing to the input snout. Specs say 10-3/4 inch, I wanted a non-diaphram as was the original, bought one at the FLAPS for a V8 Belair with the same specs - works perfectly.
