Hey guys - looking to buy a straight 53 helix and give it a shot. Having trouble finding a good source for one though. What is a good website for these?

Anyone selling a used straight 53 by chance? It's going on a 2005 King Cat with some mods.

Thanks.

Sprocket - I noticed that the link you posted brings me to a 2000 ZL 700 clutch setup. Is this the same clutch (helix) that is on the 2005 King Cat EFI? Just wanted to make sure that it is before I buy one. When I went to the 2005 King Cat clutch diagram on that website it doesn't have the 53 helix as an option so I just wanted to double check.

Also, let me know if you have a used 53 helix and I will buy that from you. Thanks

All sleds previous to the Diamond drive models use the same clutch components. If you want a 53 degree helix, it doesn't matter what sled it came off of, as long as it wasn't a diamond drive model.

I'm guessing sprockethead just found one that was a 53, so you could see the part number.

As you can see, if he'd linked to a 2005 king cat, the helix is a 55/53.

They will interchange.
