Harold- I would purchase replacement springs from Overdrive Spares in =

I don't know the spring rates, but if you get them from OD Spares, they =

Subject: [Healeys] Overdrive Clutch Springs
I am rebuilding a 22/3087 Overdrive from a BJ7. What should the free =
length of the clutch springs be? All 8 are made from 0.095=E2=80=9D =
diameter wire. The long springs measure 4-7/16=E2=80=9D to =
4-15/32=E2=80=9D and the short springs are 4-1/16=E2=80=9D to =
4-1/8=E2=80=9D. The manual states the springs should be 4-1/2=E2=80=9D =
and 4-1/4=E2=80=9D. I was surprised the short springs are more =
undersized than the long springs.
=20
I saw some mention that the clutch springs in earlier OD models were =
made from two different wire sizes. Does anyone know the wire diameter =
of length of new springs from a reputable supplier?
=20
Thanks=E2=80=A6 Harold
