Re: LIFAN vs HF Predator or? Pro vs Cons
I tried to run a 1 3/16 belt on a Club Car secondary clutch and it was riding way too high.....To the point where It was no where near fitting. I ended up using the stock belt for the conversion. You made a good choice

Re: LIFAN vs HF Predator or? Pro vs Cons
The more I read up on 1-3/16 belt on a OEM secondary it appeared I made a good choice as Field6565 said.
ON ANOTHER NOTE! I just pulled my KF82 and apon inspection Of my secondary clutch.... it only had one wedge sprag!!!! 2 of them are broken off. How did this thing move before? Anyway I ordered my 1” belt 780 Comet Clutch from Cart Parts Plus this morning... will they take it back and trade on a 1-3/16” Clutch? If I have to buy a new secondary, might as well upgrade? Unless it’s sensible to buy parts to fix my old 1988 secondary....? |

Re: LIFAN vs HF Predator or? Pro vs Cons
Just got off the phone with Carts Parts Plus, I will be charged a 30% restocking fee for a 1-3/16" swap. Does anyone need a 1" 780 Comet Clutch? Ill sell $40.00 less than their website price. Saves me money on the restock fee and a forum member on new 1" belt 780 Comet Clutch.

Re: LIFAN vs HF Predator or? Pro vs Cons
Don't trade your 780 -- it's a matter of moving a snap ring on the outside of the dome to an outer groove. There is no difference in the 780 clutch for a 1" or a 1-3/16"belt -- it's all in the setup and you can change that yourself.
When you mounted the clutch you put a tin cup on before the washer and bolt. There was a snap ring there that needs to be moved out to the outer groove -- then reassembled and wa-la 1-3/16 780 comet clutch. |

Read through this thread by HBR - https://www.buggiesgonewild.com/show...=135298&page=2 he was the builder who took the picture of a chinese knockoff 780.
lf you check out this picture you can see it has 2 snap ring grooves |
