Hey all, it seems my clutch is starting to slip if I really get on it in 4th.
Probably could go another 20k before it actually is bad, but I’d like to just replace it.
Just confirming this is what we need for a stock setup for our cars…

Thank you in advance.

That is exactly what I purchased this summer. Just be aware the clutch centering tool that comes with the kit does not fit; it is too long. I made it work by cutting down the tool a touch. At the time the proper 6-speed, Self-adjusting clutch tool was not available.

Looks like Amazon has it directly from Luk for a bit cheaper. Did you get it from fcp or elsewhere?

I just ended up ordering from FCP as they always come through, and I generally do not have any issues with their parts.

I did FCP as well, no issues. The flywheel also comes with the pilot bearing installed so you will end up with some extra parts form that kit. Just FYI.
