The only one, if you want the 'top of the range' is a Safari Exedy.

It is the top of the range for domestic/industrial 4WD's, with the No. 1 clutch being a 'button clutch'. These are used mainly in Competition 4WD's and for very specific purpose vehicles, as they are a real 'bitch' to get used to and operate.

Also make sure whoever does the job for you, has the flywheel machined/refaced etc.

Hi CLC50,

Sorry to hear about your traveling mate CLC. If she was beside you when she went then she would have been as happy as she could have been under the circumstances. They become your kids after a short while of having them don't they. That's why I won't have another one for a while. I had to have my bluey put down due to a massive cancer some years ago. I still get misty optically when I think about her.

Re your cruiser mate I can't help but the auto boxes are the best for towing as they are as tough as nails.

Hope you get it sorted soon mate.

Cheers, Bruce.
