IH 340 Clutch Condition

While I have the motor out on my 1962 International 340 Utility I figured I better take a look at the clutch. Below is a picture of one of the frictions on each side.

Does this clutch look good? It looks kind of worn down to me, but I don't know how much material was there to begin with.

ohh so it has a button clutch. from what i can see it looks worn, but its hard to tell. measure the lining and see whats left.
 
The only way a person can tell is to compare it to a new clutch of the same "puck" or "button" style.
Looking at it is not nearly as valuable as measuring. Those style disks wear the PP and FW far more than an organic (typical) clutch does.
Checking the flywheel offset depth from PP surface to friction surface, and looking for groove wear on the PP is as important as thickness of the pucks.
Splitting to do it over is not good. Jim
