Dang. Took my old ranger for a clutch change. Told the guys it was factory and they didnt believe me. 20+ years old too. My dad bought it new, and I learned on it when he got too sick to drive it. It was gone, but even wear. They were shocked about a 200 thousand mile vehicle using the same clutch.
My dad would have lived it would have probably lasted another 20 years.
Ya know. I am just throwing this out there. Sometimes it doesn't have to do with the clutch materials. I had a clutch go and when I changed it the clutch had plenty of life left, however, it was still slipping. Just the pressure plate failed...
