if you look at your right side of the screen at this moment you'll see there is a link to luk fly wheel's they sale the hole set of this ceramic clutches on 12".

you can also search for inverted dmf to see how to save a couple of hundred's off the fly wheel and just get the clutch.

luky_larue did it on his truck. agnem also know's it

my 2 cent's, exekiel

I put the LuK on my Powerstroke, basically the same thing for the IDI, it was easy if a little heavy but I am used to that being a truck mechanic [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] But not that heavy and I am glad I did it, if your dual mass flywheel has not given out yet, just wait, it will and maybe take something along with it from the vibration. So I say if you have to separate the engine and transmission might as well just replace the whole mess. The clutch action is a lot nicer too, lighter pedal and the engagement point is farther from the floor. The only down side is the transmission now growls like an old dump truck at low RPM but it works.

check out these guys poke I went with a clutch for a powerchoke and had the flywheel redrilled for a 13"clutch.I have duplicated the event which caused me to upgrade from my previous LUK set-up and WOW what a difference.

it's really noisy, eh Birken?

That's something I've been wondering about the LUK setup.

Same for the Lucky mod I assume ?

Are you getting the growling only in neutral, or in any gear at low rpm's ??

thanks!
