Abstract
An adapter clip which can be attached to the cover of an older style multiple plate friction clutch to quickly and easily permit the use of intermediate plate positioner pins is disclosed. The clip includes a central web portion having a circular recessed area formed therein. The web portion is further formed having first and second flange portions which extend in opposite directions from the sides of the web portion. First and second leg portions extend from the opposed ends of the web portion. The first leg portion extends a relatively long distance and terminates in a hooked end portion, while the second leg portion extends a relatively short distance. The adapter clip can be quickly and easily attached in a slot formed in a leg portion of an older style cover to permit the use of intermediate plate positioner pins.
