ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a method and apparatus for reconditioning a draft gear assembly friction clutch mechanism. The apparatus comprises a generally rectangular substantial flat plate member having at least one protuberance extending outwardly from one side of such plate member. The friction clutch mechanism reconditioning method includes the steps of removing each component of the friction clutch mechanism from an open end of the draft gear housing. Then engaging the plate member with an outer surface of one of the outer stationary plates of the friction clutch mechanism in a position such that the protuberance extends into a recess on the outer surface. Thereafter reassembling the friction clutch mechanism into the open end of the draft gear housing in a position such that an opposite surface of the plate member engages a portion of a wall surface of the housing.
