    John Deere GP

    Finally got it!! It was the new snap ring the machine shop installed that was not letting the clutch collar fully engage. I took an angle grinder and was able to make it flush so the collar slid over it. Works like a charm now and snaps hard. Almost took out my camper when I first tried it 😂...

    Well I’ve have the clutch torn off for about the 25th time in the last few weeks. Still no luck to get it to snap. All I can figure is there isn’t much movement in the clutch dogs when you lock and unlock the collar. How much do they really move?? Also I noticed when I slide the collar to...

    It’s like it doesn’t even remotely come close to snapping to engage

    Ok thanks for the info… I’ll pull the clutch again and check the dogs out. Maybe they are worn enough they can’t snap? I’m getting pretty frustrated on this clutch. It seems like it should be so simple!

    Could be but a lot of the old ones sound similar. You can definitely hear each cylinder fire on this one

    Well I looked at it when I got home from work and zero end play so I loosened the flywheel and got .10 and still nothing. I took it for a ride after and it seemed like it was engaged harder than it did before but still wouldn’t stay locked. Took it for a lap around the neighborhood and by the...

    So I got the clutch back from the machine shop with a new pin. Everything looks good no more slop in the collar but I can’t for the life of me get this thing to snap and lock to engage. I have to push the hand clutch forward and hold it to make it move, it won’t stay engaged. I’ve tried...

    I didn’t have a puller big enough for that gear so I brought it in to a machine shop. They were kind of weird about the gear and not being able to get it off. It should be that hard is it?

    Awesome thanks for the info. So I take it the large gear that holds the collar in place has to be removed?

    I took the clutch off again to further diagnose. I’m pretty new to this so bare with me. So is the pin that gets worn the pin that’s located about 4 o clock in the second picture and about 5 o clock right below the operating sleeve in the first pic? The operating sleeve moves in and out smoothly...

    Well I might need a little more advice. Got her running but barely moves. Won’t even move in high gear. Engine runs great no grinding in transmission. I pulled the clutch off along with forks and nothing glaring wrong. I'm pretty sure it’s the clutch disks are glazed. With the tractor shut off I...

    Thanks for everyone’s help. Got it running last night and sounds great! Just have to fine tune the carb a little today and finish putting a few things back together.

    Do they sell the felt seals for the front fan mount along with the washer/bushing that holds them in??
