Jet Clutch

As I am finishing up on my 53 Hornet, I will soon be starting on my next project.  My mom's 54 Jet 2 door that was parked 40 years ago after the clutch went out.  After a quick internet search I do not find clutch discs and pressure plates for the Jet.  Is there a interchange for the clutch disc and do you typically recondition the pressure plate?

  • I might have a disc. I'll check when I get home from work.

    Thanks for the information guys.  A quick look on Dennis Carpenter lists the Ford clutch as 9.5" and Hudson lists it as 9.125".  Is the 9.5" pressure plate correct for the jet flywheel?  Also a quick gooe search for Rochester Brake and clutch shows they are out of business.
