Measure the ones you have, then look for ones with different free length or spring rates.

Pro Trans, Joel's on Joy, and Arnett Transmission.

What works is a Allen Sherman built racing engine, a clutch built by the Hyatt's, and Mark Lelchook headers....

Want to get the streaks off of your trailer, RV, or motorhome without the alot of elbow grease. "LA's Awesome" cleaner. I get it at Dollar Store. Others have it also. Only $1.00 a bottle. Spray on wipe off.

Dollar Tree's version of CLR will clean rust and crud off of bolts and hardware. Let them soak for a day or two.
They don't have it all the time, so if you see some , grab about a half a dozen bottles.
If not , Zep's version is cheaper than CLR..Get it at the sticks and bricks store.

Looks like everyone has a favorite , been in the Harley world now for 27 years so I have tried a lot of great polishes . But the best I have found at is available at Walmart , its called Cape Cod Polishing clothes . American made and this will leave a protective coating resisting future tarnish . here's a link https://www.walmart.com/ip/Cape-Cod-...-Each/23500565

I have also used the Awesome orange from dollar Stores - works well.
They also have a refill bottle (clear plastic, yellow liquid) for $1 which makes 3 to 5 refills - for a couple of bucks you can do a trailer! Stuff also cleans under hood on used cars, Spray on - let sit, Hose off!
