Roll Pins: I don't know if it is kosher but - mine were all missing when I went to reinstall last summer. The machine shop swore they didn't have them and I know I never saw them. As I didn't know what they were when I took the clutch apart I would not have known they were missing. It was clear I needed them (something) for alignment purposes when I was putting is back together. Weeks of getting to this point and no pins. No wonder the pilot bearing was so screwed up. Someone had butchered this before. I finally found an assortment set at HF. They were not metric, but one of the sizes was just a tad lose fitting. I split it open with the tap of screwdriver- just a bit -and then they fit nice and snug when tapped into their holes. Since they are mainly for alignment I fugured it would be ok. 5,000 miles later not a problem with the clutch. Strong and smooth as an ox. Bleeding the system.... that was another story. Good luck.
