TR6 How thick should a clutch disc be? [TR6]

I removed mine, and my buddy commented that it looked awfully thin. I'd say about .375" total thickness.

What is normal? What is minimal?
 
I agree. Measurments are with the center wave plate compressed. A new AP disc measures .375". It would be down to the rivets at .220" total disc thickness. .250" would be about .060" per side wear. Not much left after that. The pressure plate applies less tension as the disc gets thinner, so it slips more & wears even faster.
