Ohio, I'm probably more frugal than you appear to be. So looking at your pics and understanding your desire to only replace the fingers and screws would be my first choice. And I have done that before. However, if you don't have a source nearby for either a used clutch pressure plate with good parts, or good access to new individual parts, you are much better off to take the above advice from several of our "local experts" and buy a new or rebuilt pressure plate, throw-out bearing, and pilot bearing/bushing. It's a safety, as well as an efficiency issue. The "new" pressure plate will come adjusted to specs and be assembled out of safe parts. If you have the timing available, split the tractor, remove the pressure plate, inspect the flywheel and clutch disc, and then order your parts. A rebuilder will want your pressure plate as a core.
You may have to dig out installation specs, but anyone of the responders above can help you there. Although these tractors don't wind up like a modern dragster, it only takes one small chunk of that pressure plate to fly out through your bellhousing and sever your ankle. Word to the wise. steve
