Can you get a heavy duty clutch...??

<< < (3/3)

Disco-Ron:
Right, clutch done, head still off, engine back in...... the 130 clutch plate is no bigger than a standard one, but it did seem beefier, and had 8 springs instead of four...... old clutch wasn't dead, but the flywheel/cover were quite 'blue'......

solihull-mick:
Heavy duty clutch i fitted had no springs to break at all, racing plates have no springs, so fitting one with 8 springs seems a bit strange, not knocking anyone but did say that the 130 plate is no bigger, as you cant fit a bigger plate to a standard diamter cover and flywheel, Did post the part number for ya dude 8)

Disco-Ron:
Well, it's in now, so time will tell.... don't ask me how, but i managed to read your earlier reply, and it went straight through my head, none of it stuck!!

Leslie Henson:
I've replaced 2 130H/D clutch plates in replacement of the standard 200TDi clutch, and both plates were slightly larger diameter, but still within the limits of the clutch cover, so there are no fitting issues to overcome. The plate also has 2 - more springs than standard.
