I did the legwork with a dealer out of Toronto guys, this is what we can expect to pay when the time comes.

I drove my buddies stang w/t the dual friction I suggest you don't go with it unless it is a trail rig only

but i'll be going with just the stage 1 once my clutch starts to slip

but thanks for the update I got tired of checking centerforces website

The dual grip will never slip I found you literally have to slam into gear
But then again his stang had over 500 ponies under the hood

And when you think about it stage 1 holds 30% more I think it is more than enough even with 35s and the extra weight of after market crap we put on

But back to the dual friction the clutch pedal was so stiff you couldn't get any feedback from it. And I would rather have the clutch break rather than an axel shaft so you could at least be towed out

But this is my opinion

ya had dual friction in my sport compact i would not use it in a jeep for all the reasons MAW said and a clutch that is either on or off equals a lot of stalling when ya want it to slip a bit under driver input.

centreforce is same as LUK clutch which last i know of is the same as the stock clutches in all manual Chrysler products. 30% more grip is achieved by spring compression not so much the material

I've never actually met someone who modded a neon before!

I figured you've been driving Jeeps since Jesus was a cowboy!

now now guys. Neons need modding too. White lights, fart pipes, blue glow in the dark windshield washer nozzles, yes and even dual force clutches. Scott, please tell me you didn't have neon lights under it.

Spent money modding a neon

We run the dual force in Chantal's Z28... I wouldn't consider it for a jeep unless you never took it off road... If it was strickly a pavement pounder then go for it, if that's the case drop a ripper shifter into, slam it too the ground and go nutz
