Another throwout bearing bites the dust. This time not only did the bearing break but the wire ring that attaches it to the flex plate popped clean off. Lee brought over an Ac delco throwout bearing and upon comparing it to the Luke one the Ac delco square fork plate is almost twice as thick as the Luke one. Just a rediculous little wire ring is all that holds the throwout bearing to the flex plate. I decide while I'm at this point just to go ahead and order the Fidanza flywheel. So if any of you guys have to replace the clutch take a little advice from me and don't use the throwout bearing that comes on the Luke or Valeo clutch kits. Use Acdelco. The fork plate is much thicker even though both are made in china.
