Re: Are "Heavy Duty" Clutches Overkill?

It never chattered or slipped. Once in a while I put my big ol’ 11-1/2’ Lance camper on it to go camping or tow a 16’ trailer to the lumber yard but it’s just a daily driver. Honestly, when I had the clutch changed out years ago I am not sure what the shop put in it but it was definitely easy on my knee and I had zero issues with it in over 12 years. I know they put in a raised diaphragm clutch. I am yanking out the clutch because the T/O bearing is toast.
I just bought a Luk clutch kit and I will see how it goes.
