What Clutch??????
2004 4.0V6 SC...gonna be lifted and new gears soon. any and all info will be appreciated. I did do a search and kept finding 2.3 stuff. Truck is a pavement pounder most of the time with light wheeling every now and then. Should I go back with factory or aftermarket(centerforce...etc) and what all do I need to replace?? First clutch job for this truck.

Centerforce makes a Dual-Friction setup for the SOHC/M5.
Both SPEC and Centerforce use Luk pressure plates. The clutches themselves are totally different.
If your going away from a LUK type of clutch disc, I would STRONGLY recommend having your flywheel resurfaced even if everyone tells you its ' ok '. Different materials on different scored surfaces. The impurities burnt in from the friction of the past cutch disc COULD contaminate the new clutch and cause premature failure or less then desired results.
Make sure you own a set of FEMALE Torx sockets if your going to have your flywheel resurfaced. Do NOT take a 12point 3/8ths socket and strip one of those torx bolts.. its a bad area to have to drill and tap in.
