Abstract
A mounting system for attaching a clutch assembly to a base structure includes a support member, a clutch assembly mounted on the support member, the clutch assembly having a clutch with an axis generally normal to the support member, a bearing assembly mounted on the support member, and a fastener attached to the base structure and extending through the bearing assembly to prevent rotation of the support member with respect to the axis of the clutch, where the bearing assembly enables relative movement of the support member away from the plane of the base structure.
