I am hoping Can Am knows what they are doing, I was not having issues with my clutch but since there was a recall out, I ordered the part myself and just installed it, my dealer is 250 miles away. If you do it yourself let me give you a couple tips.
One make sure you have a 14mm allen head socket and pull handle to hold the crankshaft on the flywheel side
two, you have to provide two m12x 1.75 nuts to put on stud to tighten it up with. This method sucks by the way. You better tighten them against each other extremely tight to keep both from turning when you are trying to torque the stud in place.
You will need a clutch puller to remove the inside half of primary from crankshaft. In hind sight, this stud might could be put in with it still on the crank but the recall instructions say remove it so I did and it was not fun. It was stuck, used a BRP puller and had to tap it with a dead blow hammer then tighten it again to get it to break loose.
There is two new slippery washers, do NOT clean them with anything, they have a coating on them,
You will need blue lock tight
You will torque the new nut to the same 95ft lbs as in our Dalton install video and use same method, torque it, drive it and retorque.
What concerns me is if and when I need to remove the fixed portion of the primary again having to remove the stud, bet that is going to be even more fun.
