I started mine the other day to check the sled start and ran when I heard that clutch. I thought there was a arctic hex clutch on it at first. That has got to change as I would be embarrassed to leave it like that.
Clutch Noise Sollution?????

I did something similar. I put metal washers where you put the nylon ones and it sounded quieter but it was still a lot louder then my 10,000 mile viper. Maybe it was the metal washers vs nylon.
noise
Just did my 09fx clutch today with the nylon washers.What a difference,sounds like my apex clutch now.Got the washers at lowes,a #10 washer and only 58 cents for 4.See how they hold up once the season starts.

fantastic. I am Glad that this is making a difference and it is not just my imagination that the noise is finally gone and I can enjoy the sound of my engine.
I did put a bit of blue lock tight on the nuts to ensure they did not come off.

lol, the best part of this is that you can pick them up at any large hardware store (Canadian Tire for me) These are standard #10 or Nylon Washers. Again I have not tested for durability under winter running so I can't say what is going to hold up best.

I dont see durability as an issue at all at that spot....you could use a rubber O ring there as well..
