Pressure Plate
Is it a bad idea to only replace a clutch disc rather than the whole kit,ie new pressure plate, bearing, etc?
I have a 94 4-runner that is on it’s last legs. I have replaced clutches before and have noticed that most all of the wear is on the clutch disc itself, usually the pressure plate looks fine and the flywheel can be resurfaced if it’s needed. A new clutch disc will only cost $50, where a clutch kit would cost $200. The clutch is currently only starting to slip. I am only hoping to get another 15-20 thousand miles out of this vehicle. Have you ever heard of anyone only replacing the clutch disc. I know the answer most people would give is to say that if you take the time to drop the transmission replacing all the parts within a clutch kit will benefit you in the long run. The problem is I don’t think this vehicle has a long run ahead of it and I don’t want to put any more money into it than I have to. What do you think?
I have just resurfaced the flywheel and replaced only the disc many times. Never had a problem. If your throw-out bearing isn’t noisy on depressing it, no doubt it’s fine. A quick inspection as to it’s being free and smoothe spinning on handling it will let you know. If this bearing is bad or rough sounding, change the pilot bearing too.
