That looks completely destroyed! Sorry about that man! I hope that you will send the clutch to the manufacturer and they can Figure out what happened

As I spoke to the OP a couple threads back when he was having issues, I suggested a few methods before installing which I believe he didn't perform so I think this is were a few issues came into play. (The issues have since been fixed from the manufacturer's, so customers won't have to do the clearance-ing before installing)
Paulo - I'm contacting Comp Clutch now and trying to get a new unit setup so we can swap it out for you. I'll shoot you a pm with some information here shortly!
Thanks,
Adam

Thats great news Adam for the op. Trully a vendor who is backing up their customer service and their products!
Adam any solutions for installng a pedal stop for a quartermaster twin? Qm themselves suggest the use of one, and it seems that all of the new type clutches need one.

Just for a tid bit of information, it looks like there was a little bit of failure in the disk which was made by Quartermaster. As everyone knows, Quartermasters are pretty much unbreakable when it comes to holding power.

+1 for helping broham out with a repalcement, but a big fail for not including additional info which could have precluded this from the beginning.

I am not trying to stir it up, but since this issue was seemingly known about, wouldn't it have been prudent to have included some additional precautionary notes in with the original purchase? Yes, hind-sight is always 20/20 vision.

According to some of their earlier posts they did include additional instructions with the clutch.

Correct, full color pictures on were to check for clearance.

However, I DID do the required procedures and this STILL happened
I'm not trying to blame anyone, not my intentions at all, I just want to drive

What can cause this? Please help
