It shouldn't - most clutches are built from good quality spring steel.

I would be more concerned about the springs in the clutch cover but I have done exactly that for the last few years because our 4000 only gets very occasional use and stuck every time it was left.

Hi Folks,

Does the oil when poured into top of diff casing also fillk the brake casings either end or does that take a separate oil. Is 80/90 gear oil the correct oil for those axles?
