Anyone know if the NV3500/4500's had a clutch return spring to keep the throwout bearing off of the pressure plate splines? Thinking I may have to mock one up.

Thanks,

I don't think hydro clutch's have a spring return. I think the throwout bearing rides on the pressure plate fingers all the time.
Not the best idea IMO , but I don't know any way around it yet.
