Clutches?!

[5spd Z71]

What's everyone running for a clutch? I need a new one. The clutch is 12" x 1 1/8" 10T correct?

I'm running a Hays clutch for my NV4500 - http://www.summitracing.com/parts/hay-90-103

How's the engagement on that clutch? Doesn't chatter does it?

It's really smooth. I like it.

I found out why my clutch was chattering so much. I only want to do this job once, that's why I was asking about a quality clutch. The clutch that was put in, had a bent disc. Only signs of wear is on about a a quarter of the flywheel and pressure plate.

Have your flywheel turned for sure before putting a new clutch in.

In my 88 behind the 454 i have the same Hays Supertruck as Chewy posted. It works great.

In my 98 dually I put a centerforce dual friction in it. Towing 16k with it no problems there either.

Dave. As a daily, which one do you prefer?

I plan on having the flywheel turned, and a new clutch kit. From what I've read, it seems the only choices are the Hays or Centerforce. Just wondering about the differences between the two. I use my truck mostly for DD. I do tow and haul with it, so I need a quality clutch that can keep up. I'm not too concerned about a stiff pedal. ( I kinda prefer a stiffer pedal compared to a softer pedal )

This is too much work to do twice. I'm hoping this will be the last time I do this!
