I need to replace my clutch soon. From looking at records this clutch only has 20k miles on it but the last replacement was in 1985. I'm going to assume the flywheel is toast (car has 106k). The kit from Pelican looks like the way to go (with 6 spring disc with flywheel) but kinda pricey. I don't want to be penny wise and pound foolish but if there's a cheaper way to get all the parts I'm anxious to hear it! Thanks

Very helpful Dave. I read that Pelican article and assumed it included engine removal - goes to show how important it is to read multiple times! I'm also leaning towards buying from Pelican based on previous experience and their willingness to answer my stupid questions!
I'm curious which "kit" you bought - original or 6 spring, super kit, etc? thanks! |
