I have a 2005 M7 141, the secondary clutch wore threw the belly pan. Didnt know if that was a known issue or not? I see on the 2006 m7 141 there a metal plate in the belly pan and different part number for the belly pan itself. i wanted to know if the 2006 belly pan parts would fit my 05 m7.

I'm 99% sure that '06 panels will fit your '05. Nearly as sure that any year side panel will fit, up to 2011. I'm assuming you wore through the side, not the bottom. Although I'm pretty sure the bottoms are all the same also.

You'll get more sure answers in the M-series sub-forum though, if you need. This is technically the forum for the older 1M chassis, like the King Cat.

I wore through my stock 2005 M7 belly pan too. When cat went to the 10.4 secondary as stock, they deepened the belly pan with an insert. Not sure when that started. I upgraded my whole belly pan on that side to the new style. Mine was from a 2009 m-series. Not sure if you can just get the newer insert plates and cut out your belly pan you already have, but I would try that first. If that doesn't look like it would work for some reason then you could get the entire belly pan like I did.
