Clutch parts, but would like to know where to get parts in general.

They are very tough to get parts for in general. When I work for my last employer he bought one at an auction for literally nothing. Can't remember what model it was. The only thing it needed was a caburator. Yea real easy to get one, lots of old toyota trucks. Call all around the world, talked to many dealers and such. They all said sure give me a day or two and call me back. None of them had one or could find a used one. Boss got sick of it and told me rent a plasma cutter and get rid of it for scrap. Got more money out of it that way then what he paid for it. Good luck trying to find parts.

Gray market lift trucks are tough to get parts for, all the ones I have ever seen/worked on at some point got scraped due to not being able to get a part somewhere along the line. The best source is an auto parts store that will spend time matching up parts to something automotive. You will more than likely not get a lift truck dealer to be able to supply you with anything more than similar US spec parts, and even if they can the parts will have to come from Japan, the parts support just isn't there.

The gray market trucks I have seen over the years even use an odd tire size not commonly available here in the states,,,, most of the grays I have seen were Komatsu's. Have any dimensions on the clutch? Sometimes the parts are used by several models/manufacturers. I still have access to some cross reference materials. Do you have a model # for the truck? I found 10 and 21 spline clutch discs available listed for Toyota.
