dual mass clutch setup
Hi, I am in need of a new clutch, so i went into napa and asked them for a clutch set for a zf-5. The guy said I have to either have to convert to a single mass or replace the dual mass. Is this true? I know a replacement dual mass would be close to a grand I am really just trying to get a new clutch in before hay season as cheap as possible. thanks,
Kyle.

Either way is going to be expensive.
You could also try going to a junk yard and see if you can't pick something up that will work well enough for a while -- it sounds like this isn't a daily driver, so if you can get something that'll work for a few thousand miles, you'll be good.

DM flywheel is a ticking time bomb. You'll pay a LOT more later if you continue to use it, and it grenades the tranny case. Leverage the time/effort/money invested dropping the tranny and do it now; it'll save you in the end.

Dual Mass can be a real pain in the *** to get resurfaced, alot of places dont want to do it... and in all honestly I agree with most of the above comments, all it is is a ticking time bomb... there is hardly any real need for the Dual Mass and the Solid Flywheel is the way to go. I can not tell you how many times I have seen destroyed transmissions from a Dual Mass going "Critical Mass" and blowing up... It's worth going to the Solid Flywheel while you are in there.
