Is it the slave or the throw out bearing that is dying? TOB can be replaced seperately from the cylinder assembly. If it is the bearing, have you looked at the fingers on the pressure plate? Going with Motorcraft parts is a good idea, aftermarket is a gamble IMHO. I worked in a parts store, now I only use OEM parts, just a thought!
