This little washer could save your clutch bell, spur gear, and gas tank if a clutch bell bearing fails and comes apart.

This system captures the bearing and the clutch bell to keep everything in place if the bearing fails. There is a small step on the bearing side that keeps the bearing shield from hitting the washer and allow the clutch bell to spin freely while trapping the bearings and shield in place so nothing can come out. This system will work on all vehicles where the clutch bell and bearings sit flush with the end of the crank.

Part is designed to retain a 5x10 bearing.

Small washers are to be used on the 3mm screw. It will fit inside a 5mm bearing.

Use these to give a small amount of play on the clutch bell.
