Have opened my (replacement) SII OD. Am wondering what might be used to replace the braking bands on the cone clutch (? - VB calls them the "sliding member"), as that's the only noticeable wear on what looks to be a recent-ish rebuild. Not near the rivets yet, but the pattern on the outer band is flattened, and while I'm in there... I don't want to go back for a long time. Vic British specs a $150+ rebuild, but I don't want to send it away. If someone could tell me what material it was, I could ask around a couple clutch/tranny shops...
