I found the clutch bracket new OEM part on FleaBay for $20, worth it to me to just pop that in rather than try to make something. The gas tank is not the right one for this tractor, it's the bigger one, and it doesn't sit in the tank mount properly, so I found a good used one and some straps on FleaBay from a K301 to put on it so I can still use this tank. It's in really good shape so I don't want to swap the tank, I'd rather swap the mount. There is plenty of room in there for it.

Now for probably a dumb question... but now is the time to ask.

This tractor does not have the clutch spring clips that go on the three pins on the clutch plate, are they necessary? The only reason I know they are missing is because I worked on a 73 that had them. I'm not quite sure what they're for anyway... To keep the clutch disks in place?
Those are anti rattle springs and they aren't needed, I've never had a Cub that had them.
