Hey Jeepers!
I recently brought my Jeep to a shop after hearing some ear retching sounds from my bell housing side of the transmission. Yup, clutch. They offered to either replace it with an OEM clutch kit or a perfection clutch kit for $30 dollars more. The question I have for you is would you, 1) Go OEM or Perfection, or 2) A different clutch kit entirely like SPEC or Centerforce. The current estimate for my repairs are $1450 being $250 of that is going to the rear main seal (They mentioned it being more expensive because there's apparently a plate that the seal is pushed against that needs to be replaced with it) that I opted and gladly accepted since it was already leaking. Calling them tomorrow to give the go ahead with my decision.
I really don't want to change the clutch myself. I don't have enough competence in my skills nor the amount of friends who can help me out since they're dealing with family and kids and after watching my buddy replace his clutch on his diesel and seeing him take his NV4500 out I wasn't excited to ever do that job myself.
