RACING ONLY - Lower Unit Clutch Dog for the 3 cyl. SST60 or Nitro Lower Unit https://gearprosinc.com/shop/ols/products/sst60-c "Also made with a relief ramp on the forward lugs to aid in shifting into forward gear." what's all that about? |

Sounds to me like that relief ramp could bite you in the butt. Usually, a sharp crisp edge is preferred. In fact, a worn out clutch dog has rounded edges, causing it to slip out of gear??? What do I Know?? |

That's what I was thinking, Thom.. So I hope someone can explain why it would be better with that "relief ramp".. I replaced an older clutch dog in my lower because of those same worn areas. |

ok I pulled out a clutch and fwd gear to see what's what. I had been looking at it backwards. The GearPros one makes sense now. The ramp is on the trailing side of the dog - so it'll start to fall in to the gear sooner. |
