Heavy Duty Clutch for Hilux ?

Post by Deleted User »

I have an 85` Hilux ( LN65 ) and am about to replace the clutch. I have heard people talk about a heavy duty model but I dont know much about them ? ----
Basicly, is there much of a difference and would you put one in instead of the standard one ? ( and why ? )

A mate of mine said that it takes more effort to push the pedal down with the Heavy Duty one ?????? If so, how much more effort --- is it anoying in City traffic ?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Depends on how H/duty your talking about go say a sports tuff exeedy and pedal will be the same but they have more clamp pressure so it'll grab a heap better just put one in a turbo2.8 and goes good as pulls a wicked 2nd gear hoops :armsup:

Where are you located?

I had a shop in Coopers Plains, Brisbane do a better than std clutch for me. It used a Prado pressure plate and seems to be pretty good. It has certainly lasted well. Can't remember the name of the shop though.......
