I am still a novice but would like to know when to replave the clutch? It looks OK but what do I know? I can send a pic to anyone you would like to comment. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 591 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 591 | I would replace it now. It's a relatively cheap item (especially if your pressure plate is good). It's a lot easier to replace it now than later. Don't forget a new throw -out bearing if you decide to replace it. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2005 Posts: 310 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2005 Posts: 310 | I'd replace everything, pressure plate included. I just bought a new one for the '51 (with a '54-up clutch). The whole kit cost a little less than $115. It even came with an alignment tool.

If you replace whole assembly get a new matched set. The remans are very inconsistant. Dont foget the pilot bearing.
