Default LT80 Clutch

I machined the clutch shoes down to 180g tonight, got them completely dialed in. When I went to put it back together the shoe fell off of the aluminum part.

Has anyone else had this happened?

Has anyone tried to epoxy it back together or just replaced it? I was going to order a new clutch set, but thought I would ask before I did.

Thanks

I've heard of this happening once.

I was pretty pissed! I JUST finished cutting the shoes down and was putting the clutch together and it fell of in my hand.

It is a really clean break, like the epoxy that held it all together just gave up the ghost. Any thoughts from anyone about epoxying it back together? I mean, someone epoxied it together the first time right?

Go for it. Only thing can happen is it fall off again.
