epoxy or JB weld. Whichever is handy.
Superglue will not last.

Do not use JB weld as in the last post. If you ever have to replace it you will have to buy a new clutch bell.

Use CA glue.

virtual120,
Here's my two ents.
CA will not holed up to heat, Although some " may" have had success.
The CA will not bond with metal properly.
I would not recommend it.
Use 30 or 45 min. epoxy. Applying a thin coat to the entire liner.
Trial fit the liner before glueing to establish some roundness to it and checking for a tight fit.
Also wrap one layer of electrical tape around your clutch and insert the clutch into the bell and new liner until the epoxy has set. This will establish a proper clearance for the clutch.
Use rubbing alcohol (70%) for cleanup.
I hope this is of some small help.
Regards

Use CA glue.
JB weld is soluable in Acetone, Laquer thinner, and Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK)
No reason to have to throw one away.
CA need a porous surface and moisture to bond.

Great, thanks for th replies. Ill go with the Epoxy then and the one layer of tape. I used two layers of tape last time and the clutch was slipping.

I stand corrected.

Thanks for posting what will loosen JB weld. I have some carbon fiber boom suports (damaged in a crash) Id like to get new rod and reuse the ends because I can't find anyone who carries that color.
