Pro-X Clutch basket for 86-04 kx500
sandblaster:
It's difficult to hard anodize cast aluminum with a surface finish of over .0004" with any kind of uniformity.
But there are processes that can be used to overcome those limitations.
But based on what dirk_411 said that may all be irrelevant.
I think someone should buy one and do a severe duty test :-o
dirk_411:
I agree with SB and someone who needs a basket buy one and do a follow up. I would but in order for me to run the K5 basket I have to demo a stock basket to claim the back gear for my swap. I have no issues doing that for a proven Hinson

The special added Teflon coating seals the coating to create a near frictionless surface for the clutch plate tabs to glide upon.

I had no idea what a inbus tool is so I looked it up.
It's a Hex or Allen head tool. :roll:
