        I have a nortrac 304c. It currently needs the clutch adjusted for the 1st time (slipping). I’m guessing that the next time it will need replaced. If so, are any heavy duty service clutch plates available anywhere? TY, walt

          Walt,

          The first clutch adjustment should have been done when the tractor was brand new.  They are rarely set correctly at the factory. 

          If you need a new clutch disc(s) there are no OEM heavy-duty models made as far as I know.  However, you might be able to have your old clutch discs re-lined by a clutch rebuilder with heavier-duty material.  You can't increase the thickness of the clutch facing though, or you will throw off all the settings and may result in a non-functional clutch.

            Thank you. I'll have a good look when I finally take the loader and frame off to get to the inspection and adjustment cover.  In the past I've split Internationals and installed new clutch discs, but this is a first for a two stage.
