Post by: MOABICON on November 23, 2014, 08:55:50 AM
What clutch, pressure plate, release bearing, pilot                                                                                                                                                    bearing set do you recommend? Where in Calgary                                                                                                                                                  do you buy them? Could use the pivot ball & spring too.

Apparently the Luk clutch is the same as the factory clutch, but much cheaper.

Talk to Dave down at broken axle.

Most aftermarket companies that offer a stock replacement clutch kit will work fine, auto value/napa/parts source. I would recommend a new flywheel as well, they aren't expensive and better then machining your current flywheel. The pivot ball and spring I've only found through the dealer, but they are cheap.
If you want a fancy clutch kit we have done a few center force kits that offer better holding power with a slightly stiffer pedal feel, which I prefer because tjs have a very light pedal after new parts are installed.
