I know this is going to sound crazy but I still have to ask because there are number of very knowledgeable people on this forum who work on this drives
I'm getting closer to needing clutch repair. Right now slips over at 32mph
my question is what is the difference between forward and reverse gear/cup. Looking at some pics they look the same and so does the top and the bottom of the cone
if they are the same but only require different shimming why couldn't tthey be flipped including cone.
In my case the amount of pull it has in forward is not sufficient but would suffice for reverse and because neither cup nor cone on reverse would have much wear since amount of time in spend in reverse is negligible it would be in near new condition.
I hope my clutch gets me through the summer and than would do repairs either cheap or expensive way over winter.
Being machinist once it take the drive apart I will be able to measure everything and will know for sure if flipping everything is possible
