96 scrambler 400 driven clutch bolt question
hi, the washer on the bolt that holds the driven clutch in place has broken and bent on my 96 scrambler. notice the shape of it. can i just replace it with a flat thick washer?
i was unable to get the correct tourque on the bolt which made the bike "skip" under hard acceleration. thanks for any insight.

I agree the washer's wrecked.I'd order the correct one. Torque as mentioned is from 15-17 foot pounds,looks like either too much could have caused this or even too loose could cause the clutch to slam outward from centrifugal force on the transmission shaft. As far as the belt slipping I'd tear the clutch down and check for ramp button and helix for damage.

i agree, its toast. when i took it apart the bolt was very loose. on the last ride power was not getting to the wheels, instead i heard a snapping sound (like a chain skipping on a worn out sprocket). i could tell the sound was coming from the clutch area, which is why i took it apart to investigate. hopefully with a new washer and correct torque it'll be alright. thanks for the help
