Bully clutch trouble

[8bsimpson5]

So i got new discs for my son's clutch but can brake the six Allen bolts loose after I removed the bell. Are they left hand thread or something

Not left handed, but sometimes they are very tight, and possible rusted in there a little.

put a dick pin on your 1/4 impact gun and whack it

Lol. Could I heat it a little

You could with some prudence .
A high quality tool like enders allen wrench or similar sockets type .
How old is it ? years or relatively new ? if rebuilt someone may have used red lock tight .

It's used came with the kart when we bought it in December

 

[racinnut15xm]

are those bolts metric?

 

[8bsimpson5]

I think they are

 

[flattop1]

Haven't bought a new bully in years .
Mine are not metric .

Do not take out the bolts from the bell (drum) side of the clutch. Do it from the spring side, activator plate where the levers are.

 

[8bsimpson5]

The four on the spring side is what comes out.

I've seen them come through the shop with red Loctite on them all too often -- the only way you'll break them loose is to heat them with a heat gun, and remove while hot.
You can also use a left hand drill bit.

The screws are 10-32 and take a 5-32 Allen wrench IIRC.
