Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Clutch time!

[J.Keith]

I ordered a Luk Cerametallic 13" Pro Gold

I'm gonna get it installed cause I just don't have the time.

Who runs one of these and how do you like it? It sounds like it will be a little more driver friendly than the SBC con ofe which was the other option that I was considering.

Anyhow I should have a first hand report by mid week.

I'm sure looking forward to 5x5!!

I have not run that clutch, but make sure you change the Pilot Bering. Also, grease the new one before reinstalling the transmission. Of course, get the fly wheel machined.



I destroyed the stock clutch, exploded (and never found all the parts when disassembled) a TST clutch, and am currently working on breaking a SBC FE clutch. Have not used one of those yet, but good luck with it.

I have had mine for about a month. You will also need the 6spd flywheel that luk sells. Mine has worked well and it pulls hard as a result though it takes a little feathering to start and backing up takes some getting used to. Most of my driving is in the city. The pedal feel is about the same but the cluth is more grabby(?). It did not slip on the dyno.
