Re: Pressure plates
I think that a lot depends on the condition of the one that gets rebuilt. If there were major issues with the old one then the rebuilt one may inherit the issues. When buying a rebuilt pressure plate you really don't know the condition of the old one that was used.
On the other hand, where is the new one coming from and what is the quality? Was it manufactured correctly and put together correctly?
I think if you have a good pressure plate that has to be rebuilt, then you should have that one rebuilt and figure out how to get your original back. Ford said in the Service Bulletins that radial cracks are not really a problem and that the surface should be sanded and the pressure plate re used.
Snyder's has always supplied good parts to me but as Chap said, give them a call.
