Is converting a SA to a Rockford clutch a difficult procedure? I have heard the throw-out bearing is much better on the Rockford set-up than the fragile carbon job on the standard clutch. What would I need to get besides the clutch and pressure plate and throw-out bearing - is the linkage and fork(for the throw-out bearing) the same? Thanks. mike

To change the type of throwout bearing, you need to change the carrier. The rest of the linkage is the same.

Mike: Just a matter of buying the Rockford replacement parts. I bought clutch disc, presure plate, release bearing and pilot bushing and had a young IH technician lived near by who did the work in his own shop. I don't think he encountered any problem with fork that activates release bearing. His billing was nothing but labor. He was the type that would cry for more money if he encountered extras.

I will tell you what I encountered in buying those parts back in 1992. I told the CaseIH partsman, whom I had dealt with forever, I wanted Rockford clutch parts for my SA. He said, "Your in luck, we haven't stocked Auburn clutch parts for any tractor in over 25 years." That is now close to 40 years ago and I'll bet most CaseIH dealers did about the same.

A&I bought out Rockford about 2 years ago we have a pretty good stock as of now but some are still on back order and some are out of stock but a heck of a lot cheaper than they used to be. JON
