I am currently rebuilding a Homelite c5 and had to buy a new crank case. The crank case I bought is from a c51 and has the crank shaft in it. I tried to put the clutch from the c5 on but it has a slightly bigger inner diameter and doesn’t fit on the c51 crank. Then I ordered a clutch from a c51 on eBay and it is the same exact size as the c5 clutch. I was wondering if Homelite changed the clutch part way through production or if something was titled wrong on eBay.

Thanks, Kannon

Any pics, Im betting the crankcase is incorrect.
