Noticed a good amount of clutch dust on the skid plate and also on the starter when I pulled it out today. Is a lot of dust normal with a twin disc setup? Only had one day trip on it. Could the adjust be off and causing an issue? Car shifts fine.

Reason I ask is if you had a Fortin, the side cover allows sand to get into the bellhousing, and alot of it.

Something is off with your adjustment.

I have a twin disc 9" with my S4 and don't have much dust after a whole season.
 
Spoke with my buddy and also Jason Alpert and both agreed that the clutch is probably not disengaged completely. (No free play on arm) waiting to get back into town to adjust it.
 
Never seen that amount of dust on any of my duel disc setups. One trip?? Yeah I would be concerned as well.
 
Finally had a chance to inspect. Clutch at almost no free play so I am assuming that is where all the dust came from. Got everything adjusted but cant start the car till later today to make sure it will go into gear.
