Clutch for OM606 in -88 124 Mercedes
Clutch for OM606 in -88 124 Mercedes
So, i did buy a Sachs 765 pressure plate and a Borg & Beck Sprinter Clutch and flywheel kit, i only used the clutchplate out of that kit but it was very cheap and the flywheel could be useful in the future.
Instead i had the original flywheel modified for the 765 pressureplate, the Sprinter clutchplate was a bit thinner then the 9,2mm specified for the 765 so we machined a "step" in the flywheel to compensate for that.
And the boltcircle did end up in the line between the flywheel and the starter ring gear, but hopefully that doesen´t matter to much.
I also did some modifications to bet the right distance between the throwoutbearing and the clutch.
The point of engagement in the clutchpedal is a bit deep, i think the travel of the original hydraulic system is a bit short for this clutch, but it does work ok, no slipping now
