Re: Put a clutch on a 05 mudbuddy 31 hp i think its something that you can do but i think its high....for some reason i want to say around $800 for the electric. you may be able to pick up the certri parts from someone who has converted to the electric tho. dont think i would want the centri tho cause i think its easy to burn em up.

Re: Put a clutch on a 05 mudbuddy 31 hp It does cost around $800 for the kit from mudbuddy. With the kit it is very simple. If you want to save some money you can machine out your existing belt housing to fit the clutch. But you will still have to buy the clutch, the upper cover, and the new belt and gear. If you machine the (E) belt housing it will save you about $350.

Re: Put a clutch on a 05 mudbuddy 31 hp Do not go with centri clutch. Ill-fated experiment of Mudbuddy, and short-lived.
Spoken from experience.

Re: Put a clutch on a 05 mudbuddy 31 hp not to much of a flop. you buy a centrifical motor then 2 months later you get to spend 800 bucks on the electric conversion. "its a win win brother" (from joe dirt)
