So I jumped on the interwebs to see what it would cost to replace ...
and there ain't no way in hell I'm going to drop 250 bucks for this part .

Nice job!
I noted the price these electric clutches go for many years ago when
shopping for a "new" riding mower. Some have decreased since then but I
question the quality nowadays...
I pop mine on once starting out, once more where I have to pass over a
rough gravely spot and then off when done (~2.5 hours). I cringe
listening to other people mowing with that clutch engaging/disengaging
every few minutes and knowing how much they cost😬

The electric PTO mowing clutch on my heavily used ~1987 Sears GT18 garden tractor needed adjustment (like everything else) when I inherited it but otherwise still works.
Many of the adjustments are much easier on a lift unless you are a teen or contortionist. The owner lived on an island off the Maine coast, far from Sears service or most other tokens of modern civilization as we know it.
