Where can i buy a high performance clutch for my explorer?

[leenjen]

i'm just about ready to do some performance mods to my explorer, and i figure with over 160K miles i should replace the clutch. i dont want another stock clutch, i want something stronger. i've looked and cant find any. does anyone know of a website where i can find one?
thanks

I got my Centerforce dual friction from truckperformance.com and I really like it. Totally grabs, great for dumping the clutch and you don't get that slip that I used to get with the stock clutch (and then that god awful stench)

 

[leenjen]

ok, great. how longt did you break it in for?

 

[DasFrem]

500 miles. It was soo aggravating waiting to get all the way on it since everywhere I've read talks of how important it is to break in a clutch. The 500 miles came right at the same time I got my new 3.73 LS. So right after I got that in I got to enjoy two upgrades in one night.

with that dual friction clutch was the pedal feel a lot different? was it noticeably heavier? was it a real ***** to drive in traffic?

 

[DasFrem]

It actually was a lot lighter on the pedel. It was tough at first, but once it was broken in (about 400 miles) it drive great, I like the feel of it a lot better than the stock clutch.

 

[DeagleDave]

was it lighter or did you just get used to it??

 

[DasFrem]

Right off the bat it was much lighter, although it would grab real easy so you'd have to be easy on it or you'dd stall it.
