Where can I get a brake band for a 3 3/4" clutch?

Nope, they list 4" and larger....and I tried a 4" and it won't work either...
maybe try with an old band to cut off the end, shorten a bit and reweld the end eye. weld in spot welds to reduce heat also can wrap the band in wet towel to keep pad cool while sitching it back together.
real world, dont really need the pull end eye, so w/o welding and taking the chance of loosening pad glue. You can always bend a small tab and drill a hole in the center of the band at the end and thread cable through that with barrell lock on cable to anchor the pull.
did any of this make sense?

They are basically obsolete....not available from Comet anymore....took me a long time to find one for the 3-3/4 " Horstman clutch on my trike build......finally got one from a vintage snowmobile parts place....I will try to find the receipt.

I thought about the cut and re-weld thing that TX powder described....didn't want to trust my life to my own welding...:lol:
