Default Tamer - Big Fix - Big Problem or Solution pic

Pullin apart the genny shovel and found what I believe is a clutch tamer installed - it has the Big Fix crap rollers in it to - I can tell because it is a bitch to turn the hub - never ran the big fix crap or a tamer - this is a foot clutch jocko-shifter - need to dial it in for ease of finding neutral - no front brake either - ferg

I don't use all that.
The Ramm Jett Retainer is all I ever thought made any difference...If you adjust and setup properly.

Default Tamer clutch system

I prefer the "Tamer " system and 3 stud clutch hubs especially in hot climates

^^^ I agree with No 5 Stud System...I also prefer 3
but, If you do things the correct way...Only the Ram Jett will make any difference at all...

it looks to me you have one of taiwan tedds china fixes

the cheap plastic retainer ( ram jett ) that actually holds the outer clutch hub from walking out when you disengage the clutch is the only thing i have ever seen work

i never really seen any difference between the 3 or 5 stud hubs as the nuts are never perfect in align with the spring retainer at any one snap in location ( special nuts ) when using a block to set the distance / your belt is different some have 10 nuts securing it some dont

the 3 inch belt has a lot of drag on the works make it just a tad loose if its snug it heats up and actually gets tighter - the alloy hubs expand more then they already do making it even tighter < your neutral issue
