New clutch..

[Rawze]

I finally had to replace my clutch for the first time at 1.05 million miles. It was not worn down, a spring broke from fatigue and was rolling around inside it.


I went with a new eaton 1850 clutch and complete clutch install kit, new inputs shaft, bushings, etc.

While i was at it, i also replaced the flywheel housing gasket, rerar main enigne seal, rear motor mounts, fuel tank straps, and other nick-nacks.

I would also recommend, if they have more than 500k miles on them, replacing ALL of the u-joints for both drive shafts, front and rear + carrier bearing while the tranny was out and everything apart. Check shaft end play on the differentials, and have the top plate pulled + a thorough inspection done to the tranny.

Also replacing the clutch brake with a 2-piece style brake of some decent quality.
