I wonder what keeps the clutch hub in place? The hollow screw in mine simply holds a small metal plate and nothing else.
I know its probably a very simple question, but I cant seem to find out what part i am missing.

If its the same as an 03 pro the only thing holding the clutch in is a small allen head bolt in the centre, there should be 10 small allen head bolts holding the plates in place on the outside of the clutch.

Ok. But what parts are connecting the allen bolt in the middle to the clutch hub? On mine, I can remove the clutch hub regardless if the allen bolt is in or not. The 10 bolts are all in place.

If you dont have the bolt threaded into anything, then the Clutch slave & slave spring would keep in in place anyway. Did the bolt break?

Sounds like it just broke off. Back in `02 they were leaving the bolt out for more oil flow?!? So it really has nothing holding it in place but all the other parts being aligned in a small space. I would not worry about it.

Thanks for the replys. I figured it out now, but unfortunantly it wasnt the cause of my problems.
