    I would.......or at least check it for flatness and if flat I would take a DA with and 100 grit on it and lightly knock the glaze off the running surface............

    A few years ago a friend replaced the clutch in his F350 Diesel. His son drove it and we got the call. Towed it home and pulled things apart, again. Dug all of the friction face material out of the starter and the cover plate was cut apart in a few places from the driven disk smacking into it. The kid, just shrugged his shoulders and denied he had done anything. We figure he had it romped up and hit third instead of fifth gear.
    You have had some clutch parts banging around in there. I'm not going to tell you about blowing up the disk in my V6. I was idleing at a stop light...
