Before you spend $300 for that awesome clutch set up, does your current clutch have these 3 anti rattle springs on the clutch fiber disc? If so, take them off or cut them off, these anti rattle clips can and will cause your drive shaft to spin when the tractor is in NEUTRAL with the engine running. They will also allow the drive shaft to continue to spin once your depress the clutch pedal, causing a slight grind of the gears when you select your next gear. These springs were designed as an anti rattle solution, but was a flawed design. What they ended up doing once installed
or with time, was allow there to be a slight drag/bind of the fiber disc and the small pins on the 3 pin disc plate.
Also, if you don’t have those 3 springs, the center bearing on the 3 pin clutch can be worn out or not have enough lubricant. These will also cause your symptoms listed above.
