Testing that people are doing shows that the bore and spokes of the SE compensator requires or like a much heavier oil to not start the fretting in the sprocket bore or galling of the spokes. Check out the SE compensator thread on htt Rabos explains it and there is pictures. All i can say is you use hypoid gear oil in your differential on a car or truck not atf and if you did fill it with atf it might not last too long.

I am pushing larger numbers, requiring a heavier spring.

Good luck

I'm a little worried from what you guys have posted, I bought the proclutch with the tpp for the stock clutch basket, do I need to get the gold spring seperate. Yikes more mods more $$, the stock clutch basket should be ok under 120 torque right?

I bought part# 630-346

We'll see how the 120R handles things.

I was talking to the tech yesterday, he said no issues with the Rivera. He never used the gold springs, just the silver ones.

I bought the gold springs anyhow. Left hand might need a workout... I've got the squeeze handle thing in the work truck.

You'd think HD would have this sorted...

Gold clutch spring

I am ordering the whole clutch because i am hearing that the stock outer clutch basket is flexing or warping and causing slippage problems. Rivera's whole complete clutch with tpp is 1053-0023 $980.00 shipped to your door with the gold spring. This whole assembly will fit the 2011s too i believe but they do not have an inner hub assembly machined to fit the 2011 stock outer clutch basket yet. Aim has a 480lb gold spring and Rivera's gold is 400lb just another 30.00 if you didn't request it when purchasing your clutch.

I looked at those and they seemed fine but they use the coil springs vs. diaphragm and i'm not happy with the pull of my SE race clutch with coil springs. Plus if you want to add the lockup pressure plate to the Barnett you need their primary cover so i started losing interest quickly with them. I know that i made the wrong choice with the SE race clutch and would like to get it right this time.

Hey guys sorry to bring up an old post. So I am looking into a clutch for my 120r and seriously considering the rivera primo pro clutch and the variable pressure assist. So is the rivera working for you guys. I completly agree with Hydrolock43 about not using ATF.
