I recommend the LuK clutch kit. I have it installed in my dually. Contact Mr.Clutch on this forum and he will fix you up. Great service and easy to deal with.

I had thought I needed a clutch because I had to have the pedal completely down in order to shift, and was pricing clutches. But learned here that I simply needed to move the lever attached to the pedal and now it works great.

it shifts fine and i dont have to do any hard pressing to get it there either more like only a couple inches but it rattles real bad until i press the clutch in then it stops and i hear thats from the two peice flywheel i guess?

If it's more of a squeal it's the throw-out/release bearing. If it's clatter it could be any number of components.

I've got a LUK Single Mass flywheel in mine, just went in recently. I don't like it, and I'm sorry we did it. The roll over noise/trans noise is annoying. It may never cause a problem, but why would Ford have put a more expensive and more complicated flywheel in there in the first place? If I was doing it again, I'd put in the DMF.

so what could all cause the clatter noise? and why does it go away when the clutch is pressed in? its starting to really bother me!! who much does the luk kit run and do i need the 12" kit?
