Zusammenfassung:A "Long" type clutch cover has a plurality of windows for the release fingers utilized in disengaging the clutch's pressure plate from the clutch's clutch disc assembly. Each window has a pair of inwardly extending bearing flanges to increase the strength of the clutch cover to resist pressure plate imposed, rotational loads. The corners of the windows are radiused to reduce the likelihood of fatigue failure. Each pair of bearing flanges is engaged by upstanding bosses of a yoke on the pressure plate to provide the load coupling of the pressure plate with the clutch cover. The yokes also provide mounting of the release fingers to the pressure plate, the release fingers also being pivotally mounted to the clutch cover.
