Ok, i went into Greenfield HQ here in Brisbane again (Thank god they are only 35 mins away).
I took the whole assembly in so they could have a bit of a nostalgic day smile.
They were only to happy to help and did an outstanding deal on heaps of new bits!
Got a new shaft and all associated parts that go with it as well as some new clutch faces.
After getting home it was timne to remove the rusted on old parts. Seeing as though i wasnt going to be re-using the shaft i gopt the grinder and cold chisel onto the stubborn collars and retainers. Only took about 5 mins and everything was apart. i even managed to not mark up the old shaft too badly.
After pulling the clutch assembly off i saw what i think would be a major contributing factor. The large drive wheel on the rh side has been severly gouged, I would say this may have happened in the past when the clutch ran out material at some stage in it's life and has rubbed metal on metal.
The left side, whilst not as bad, shows some similar wear.
So it looks like im up for 2 new drive wheels, not sure if i can get back in to Greenfield this week but would like to get it back together asap before i forget what goes where lol.
I'm also going to remove the old cork from the clutches and give them a light sand before sitting them on some glass and using a feeler gauge to see if they are warped.
Here are some pics.
