| Post subject: | Flywheel |
1983 Dodge D150, slant6, fourth speed overdrive transmission. It calls for an 11" flywheel, but takes a 10". I'm two years into a new clutch kit, resurfaced flywheel. The clutch was giving me difficulty going into reverse, going forward heard a big bang and lost the clutch completely. I haven't started the repair yet, any thoughts. As I said 10" clutch kit all was working fine, can the 11" be used. Very limited on pressure plate. |

No your truck should use the smaller 10" clutch with the OD transmission. |

Ive seen where the aftermarket redesigns things, they put the pressure plate retainer bolts within the circle of the pressure plate instead of a flange outside of the "bowl" so to speak, and you can get a larger clutch in the same flywheel. seems like the difference was 1/2" not a full inch but it has been a while since I have done a clutch. I know my Wrangler was that way.... and I think there was a footnote in the catalog about the bigger one replaces the smaller one..... |

If it has a OD in it then I am pretty sure all he can use is the 10" heavy duty clutch and PP. The big truck, flywheel and clutch were never available with the OD "car" transmission. |
