When I replace mine it will be a centerforce. Spec also makes one I believe.

Spec clutch stage 2+
Kit comes with a throw out bearing and you can pick up the pilot bearing for around 15-20

For me mine stopped working in 2 hi in about 10 miles. So if it goes it's gone very quickly, you won't mistake it or something else

When you step on the gas the clutch will slip, engine will rev but you will not accelerate. Once mine started slipping I got about 50 miles out of it before it grenaded. I replaced mine with the centerforce duel friction, went with the centerforce over the spec mainly because it was in stock.

For those who have replaced it, please specify the miles when it failed and the type of use % on / off road.

13,000 miles. 95+% on road. 37s for 4000 miles, 3500 of which were run on stock 4.10s. Clutch gave out while wheeling.
