I know they are wet clutches..but in terms of maintenance.. what is required for the sst gear box? do the clutches need to be changed is they wear like a normal dry clutch?

It appears some work has been started on this issue but we're looking at some time before anything comes of it . If something happens to the unit now it has to be replaced completely
