I bought my last C&PP from Fort Wayne Clutch based on many recommendations from this forum and others. Also based on the many reports of poor quality parts being sold today by many suppliers who are importing theirs from China. I have not installed them yet, but they sure look like quality parts to me.

I just purchased a new clutch and pressure plate, pilot bearing, throw out bearing from Fort Wayne Clutch. Have not installed yet. Will try clutch pedal adjustment and new front motor mounts initially to solve the chatter in first gear. If not, then I have the new clutch & PP ready for install.

Like the others, I recommend Ft. Wayne. I have purchased my last five, six??? from them. All have performed well.
