George, Marcotte started out with a set up
like Tracy is using and must have switched to the pins (these are
approximately 3/4 " in dia. as I recall and smaller at the outer end) inserted
into the bushings without a thru bolt. I do not have any working
knowledge of this set up, that is why I am more than a little concerned about
it. It would appear that the disc's would be trying to push themselves
apart. JohnD

John,
That sounds like a lot of dampers out there. I
didn't realize Marcotte used that system - how are the opposing sides held
together.
George (down under)
Lynn, I have a Marcotte Redrive and the drive
disc has 5 pins that appear to have a taper similar to a Morse Taper and
the driven disc has isolator bushings, which are internally tapered to fit
the pins, of some type to absorb the torisonal vibrations. Will this
setup cause an undesirable load on the thrust bearings. I was hoping
to get a first start when the snow goes, now this question comes up.
