My 02 Sport needs a heavier duty manual transmission or clutch assembly for towing any suggestions? Please help love my sport but just need it to tow better.

Maybe you just need to regear the axles(s).
 






Why do you feel it needs to be heavier duty? How much are you towing?
 






Not towing excessive loads the camper weighs about 1600 but I have replaced slave cylinder and throwout bearing 45000 miles ago and now is time again and was hoping that heavier duty equipment would get more longevity
 






Um i don't know much about stick shifts, but I know throw out bearings don't last to long. What brand are you using? Could be a cheap asian made part
