yes you can do it yourself, the stock gear is rivited to the the basket so you have to drill out the rivet head and knock them out. you will need some red locktite though, duncan bumped up the torque spec on my bolts to 8 ft/lbs.

oh almost forgot put the gear into the hub then install the rubber disks....I fought wioth this for at least 15 min before I got smart. hope this helped.

yeah that sounds right, 2 disks per slot. you'll see what we mean when you take the stock one apart. i used a small grinder and carefully took off the heads of the stock rivets, then punched them out. it's really not that hard of a job. i did mine without problems, and it was the first time i had a clutch apart in about 15 years, especially to that level. a clymer's manual will walk you through it fine, and of course the HQ is here 24/7.

Thanks for replying I know I kind of jumped in on this discussion.

But I have the modded shift star

the PE Clutch Basket and new dirt digger clutch in my garage just waiting to be installed. Wanted to wait until I got these items so I did not have to open the clutch over again and again.

when replacing the basket its also a good idea to replace the clutch hub and pressure plate...

i went with the hinson basket, but couldn't quite swing the whole set up. so i replaced the hub and pressure plate with new stock ones for much cheaper. mine were full of stress cracks. definitely a good idea to replace them all together, even if it is just with new stockers. B)
