If one of the three limiter springs is out of place, your clutch will NOT function.

You cannot leave one of them out or install them in the wrong order and have your clutch function.

The best set up is the 2002-2003 MeanStreak spring with the Judge's washers.

Those 2 years are the only high performance spring MaKaw ever put in the 1500/1600s.

The 1600 MS springs are just Nomad/Classic springs.

If you take tension off the spring IT WILL slip.

Just physics and common sense.

Does anyone know what those 3 reverse torque limiter springs actually do?

Limiter Springs

MAS I would like to know. This winter I will be replacing the OEM spring, along with judges washers.

I hear your logic.But they take up so little space,that they make very to little difference. to the slippage.I fucked up, and put them in all arse about face. Never noticed any difference.

So in 02 and 03, there was only the 1500 Meanstreak. So those clutch springs will work on an 08 Nomad? I had a Barnett spring installed last year, and after a day in traffic like I had today, my hand goes numb after a while pulling in the damned clutch.
