Clutch 1
I've got parts of three clutches. Clutch 1 came out of Canada where it had been mounted on a V-plow. It's rusty and the hub has been welded. Some parts are usable and some parts aren't. Clutch two came with a transmission that I bought. It's in pretty good condition. I plan to take it apart, clean it up, and use it as original. Clutch 3 I only have part of. I plan to combine its parts with Clutch 1 along with some new parts to make a second good clutch.
Here is clutch 1 on the left, clutch 2 in the middle, clutch 3 on the right, and some other random parts scattered about:

I'll start with some pictures of clutch 1, as found:

You get the idea; it was pretty rusty. Some of the pictures were even taken after I cleaned it up some. I managed to get the broken screws out with left handed drill bits:

The rollers are pitted, so further disassembly will be required. Here you can see the rollers, I'll detail the disassembly process in my next post:
