Disc springs... how many?

Post by Jools »

Disc springs... What's the consensus on how many to use? Procat manual shows 2, but I believe some people use 4.
Where can I get a Procat front belt, any ideas? -It's the last piece in the jigsaw for my car (though my U/J's are very worn).

Don't suppose anyone knows the SDP part no for the front belt for the Procat?
(I'm a little confused about the correct pitch / tooth profile)

The Procat belt is MXL 323T 4mm neoprene but I'm using 320T 6mm wide.

I think this is the closest they do but it is 4.5mm wide...

Lots of info on my Oople thread for you too.
