 Dale, If you can get a copy of Nelson Reidel's piece on a 100,000 mile clu=
tch it would be worth your while. A combo of cross drilling to improve the =
fork stability, a Sachs pressure plate and Gunst throw out bearing is the m=

Hi Steve and all.

I believe I went with the Sachs and gunst bearing last time I was addressin=
g chatter / vibrating clutch when I released the pedal. That was back in 19=
99 and many many miles ago. I plan to double check - as my setup works awes=
ome.

Correction...
In 2000 I bought a LUX kit from TRF. I paid $139. I doubt it came with the =
Gunst style bearing. BPNW carries that bearing and brass sleeve for $130 pa=
rt number GRB211HD. Not sure which pressure plate and clutch disk to buy to=
 go with the Gunst bearing if that setup is desired. So confusing.
All I know is when I bought the 3 piece LUX kit and the pilot bushing, ever=
ything seems to work great. On TRF site. Blue book. There is a listing for =
a Laycock brand 3 piece set for $184 RFK116. Must be what I bought but the =
prices have climbed. I had a fourth gear shaft to use for alignment. So I d=
idn't need the 5 piece LUX set currently being sold by BPNW.

So it seems the vote is to find an original Laycock clutch set. I saw one s=
ell on eBay not long ago for close to the price of the magic clutch set. No=
t clear which plate and bearing to use with an original pressure plate. I r=
ead the original clutch will have aged and need new silicon grease packed s=
omewhere...the clutch plate springs? Again, confusing.

So I am still not sure what would be the best clutch set.

Also, I read about aligning the transmission to the engine...what does that=
 entail beyond lining the locating pins and bell housing bolts. Seems to me=
 there is no room for mis-alignment! Wow. I must have gotten lucky.

I should mention, I replaced my clutch because of chatter felt in the rear =
end / transmission when I let the clutch out. Something was not releasing. =
Bearing, loose clutch plate...something. But the kit I installed in 2000 fi=
xed it.

So what is the best solution???
A mix of Gunst bearing and original pressure plates?

I've used the Sachs and the Lux clutch kits with good results with the RHP
Bearing.
The key is to get the Bronze sleeve.
There has been a rash of bad stock sleeves. The tolerance is too small and
as they heat up they bind.
I recently got one the wouldn't even fit on the  transmission snout.
