Clutch cover/dome for a '55 NH

Post by dennis.t »

I bought a clutch cover/dome for my '55 NH on fleabay not realising that there were different ones by model. Needless to say that the mounting holes do not line up.
I need part number 5702-54 in used condition.
Is there a way to tell which clutch dome is which?
There is another cover for sale on fleabay but no part number or measurements are given and I do not want to make the same mistake twice. :(
Many thanks,
Dennis

Hi Dennis. Just use the, 'Contact Seller' button; and ask him to measure the distance between the holes. Cheers, Chris.

Chris,
Thank you for the suggestion but is the hole spacing the only difference?
Are there for example deeper or shallower domes?

There are deep ones and shallow ones, the latter are used on all except SQ4 from 1939 but the holes are in different positions on the s/arm versions compared to plunger/rigid. A 1955 NH dome will fit all s/arm models. New and used available at Draganfly
