About This Product
This MCS clutch backing plate fits late 1974–early 1984 XL Sportster models, replacing Harley-Davidson OEM part 38005-74. The backing plate is a critical component behind the clutch pack, providing the surface the clutch springs bear against. One plate is required per application. If your Sportster's clutch is slipping or you are rebuilding the primary, inspecting and replacing this plate ensures proper clutch stack height and consistent engagement. A straightforward replacement that can resolve slipping issues when the original plate is worn or warped.
Manufacturer part number: 503330.
