new to Polaris clutching

[yooper 8]

Hey folks,
First year on the Pro, and loving it so far. We are headed out to Togwotee in two weeks, and I want to install MDS clutching. Just a couple of questions:
Can you change the primary spring without pulling the primary? What are the best tricks for changing the weights?
I have a lot of experience with Doo TRAs, but none with Polaris. Thanks!

Yes both can be changed without pulling the clutch, however I find it easier to do on the workbench. I also like to pull the clutch right off for inspection reasons

on the sled (remove belt)
two choices either remove the clutch cover bults (evenly so it doesn't bind ) and then it will compress and you can fish the wieghts out (magenet works good)

or carefully use a big flat head screwdriver to compress the sheaves and slide a socket down between and it'll hold it open so you can work

i can't remember what size but just try some I'm sure someone will say what size to use
good luck oh and you'll love those mds wieghts

also clean the clutch with air and scuff belt surface with scotch bright
