Clutch Question
Who makes a good clutch for the 97 F250 powerstroke?
The clutch has been slowly going out for quite a while now, but as little as I drive the truck it's been doing fine. However, now she is starting to slip & it's almost time to get a new one. Hopefully I'll make it till next spring but she might not make it that long.
Figure I'll get the clutch someplace and then have a local shop install it.
Is there much of a difference between the South Bend & LuK clutch?
How about the stock dual mass flywheel, stay with it & hqave it resurfaced or upgrade to a single?
Truck is more about reliability that upgraded power, it's not a racer or a puller, but a daily driver.

with a south bend you really can't go wrong. As far as flywheels resurfacing them is fairly cheap. I had mine resurfaced at a local shop for $45...alot cheaper than buying a new one

Valair also makes good clutches for a decent price

From what I've been told ya can't resurface the dual mass flywheel, but I've never checked into it before.
Have never heard of Valair, will need to do some research about em
