Thr old clutch disc has springs (6) around the 25 spline hub. the new disc (ordered from this site Part # eonn7563a-kita) dose not have these springs, it's solid. Does it make a difference and if not, what is the difference. I looked at the New Holland site prior to ordering and it showed the eonn7563a as the pre 68 clutch. Or could the previous owner had the wrong clutch. [Reply]   [No Email]

The solid disc was for the straight 8 speed.. Personally I prefer the solid disc, even on the dual power. It's one less thing to blow up. I'm also of the school of thought that I'll buy an OEM clutch before anything else... except MABEY a Hy-Capacity reman. Rod [Reply]  [No Email]

The reason the DP tractors are specified to have dampner springs is because of the shock load the clutch disc takes when shifting the DP, especially on an upshift. Myself, I would go with the heavy duty spring dampened disc. [Reply]  [No Email]

They didn't always follow their own rules tho... My 7710 had a non dampened disc from the factory. First change out I put a dampened disc in... and I never cared for the way it shifted. Non dampened went in when that one blew to pieces... Rod [Reply]  [No Email]

A number of years ago I was replacing the clutch in my 1969 Chev pick up and the one I could find for it did not have the springs but I found that I could use a clutch made for a 1956 Vette in it and it had the springs and the cost was like $10 more so I did that [Reply]  [No Email]

The one with out will work just fine but you may fine you have what is called clutch chatter because of the lack of the damping springs. I my self have never used the ones with out springs in any thing I do because of the chatter problem [Reply]  [No Email]
