  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

I purchased a new outer clutch cover for my 2000 WR-360 and it did not come with the oil site glass. Is there a trick to removing the site glass from my old cover and installing into the new one, or will I need to order a new site glass?

The sight glass is encased in rubber, with a little leverage on the metal cage and it will came right out - the same as pressing in/out a bearing.
Pull it out evenly from both sides. Wiggle a little on this side, wiggle a little on that side and so on - with patience it will come out surprisingly easy.
Without patience, then it's a case of ringing your husky dealer for a replacement sight glass, drill a small hole in the centre of the old one, plug a screw through and smash it out!! Then measure up the diameter and hole your new cover, use a bit of sealant (oil and heat resistent) and apply a film to the new rubber gasket and to the sight glass, then push it all in.

PS. You cannot remove the sight glass from the inside of the case.
