My clutch is on its last leg, I ordered a "Grizzly" clutch from SPMotorsports. I just got it today and its a "Rhino Pac" clutch (SAME THING??) I ordered this one because it was kevlar which would last longer than the stock clutch. Also, there were two slips of paper inside the box first one saying "alignment tool not available" BUT the second says "Pilot Bearing/bushing for this application is not currently available" ISN'T THAT IMPORTANT??? Im getting this installed this week, WHAT SHOULD I DO?? Is this clutch even kevlar??

Whoever is installing the clutch may have an alignment tool. They are also often available at most parts stores.
As for what clutch you really got something sounds fishy. Call the supplier and ask what is going on. If you are not comfortable with it, don't use it.

Dont worry about it,none of the Contours or MTX75 transmissions use any form of pilot bearing in the end of the crank, the input shaft to the trans is supported by the trans bearings only...No sweat....

Terry,
Do you know anything about "Rhino Pac" clutches? That seems to be part of his question because it looks like they substituted a "Rhino Pac" for the Grizzly that he ordered.

I'm sure its the material specs.Most upgraded discs are a combination of Kevlar and organic friction material,this sounds like just Kevlar,no big deal,bit more 'robust' maybe a bit more 'bite'...
