I'll use gray scotch brite... but like you said... nothing in a drill with sandpaper... OUCH.

REM-DriLube

I can't find LPS-1 to lube and protect the P-85 weight wear surfaces, rollers, and bushings. Has anyone ever used REM-DriLube? It leaves a dry teflon coating that won't "sling." Bought a 4 oz aerosol can at Big R for $9.00. Seems like it might work well for this purpose...has anyone used this product for this purpose...thoughts? Thanks.

Do u really need all the tools, just getting them slp is like 270usd, kind of expensive just to shim and replace buttons on primary.

We tear down clutch's everyday and I have never had a clutch come apart easy. Get the highest quality tools available or you will pay the price for saving a few bucks. The other option is to send it to a shop that specializes in clutch repair and save yourself a lot of head aches.

Another Option is to just sell your old one and buy a new take off.
Usually I can sell my old clutch for 150 bucks and buy a new one for 350.
Zero headaches......

Even with good tools (i've got em) replacing the buttons and rollers is like a 50-50 chance of breaking something.
Serious pain in the a$$

I hear ya SMF

For me...A fully serviced and balanced used clutch has a lot more to offer than an unserviced new primary.

If I got a new one...I'd still have it balance and checked out.
