    Clutch disk re-lining anyone?

    Possible to reline clutches for a higher torque? Or is there a huge concern in doing so?

    My own curiosities. Has anyone given it thought?

    I only knew of one person (a long time ago) that had his clutch plates relined, but it was to maximize the material for longer life, and the material was to be upgraded to a harder material for that time. I knew he had to send it to a shop to have this done. As to getting higher torque rating out of it .. he never said if he did or didn't.

    Now even under these conditions, it seems to me that when it getd to the maximum torque the material can hold is reached, it will start to slip. This might be an interesting thought for the newer materials and technology of todays industry standards.
