Moderate heat is your only hope, but at $12 per IIRC, it's not going to bust the bank if you had to buy both of them new. They are not the friction disks as those are made of genuine clutch fiber and I'm thinking $7 per for those. A better term to use would be the fan clutch plate(s), I'm not so sure that they aren't pot metal (zinc).

I need to re-do mine too and soon. Anybody got a better arrangment for the fan clutch on an A as mine should have lasted longer than 4 years, I'm thinking? Some of the B's had rubber mounted fans, so I'm willing to modify a flex-fan for replacenment in there if I can do a direct hookup and loose the clutch part that wears out.

Yep , it should of made it longer than 4 years ! alot of them went 40 years trouble free ?

Can't say for sure without looking ,but something just can't be right. Last one I worked on had some parts missing from someone else being in there before me.They even had the blade on backwards and then bent them trying to get it to blow. So you may have stuff missing or wrong and may not even know it ? I only catch alot of this stuff because I had torn alot of tractors down and parted them out and rebuilt alot of them too.Got a copy of the JD parts books ? Study them long and hard as they are very good help.
