How to determine the right clutch kit?

Post by Yozza »

Ay up,
Had (another) lift home today courtesy of the RAC :( I can't say I haven't had my moneys worth this year! Couldn't get any drive to the transmission lots of noisy metal sounds, the patrol geeza recons it's the release bearing and not the box itself (I hope he's right, if not expect a call Aidan). I'll be taking the box off tomorrow to investigate and if it is the clutch I'm not sure which is the correct one for the following reason. It's a later engine and to all intense purposes it's a 'DJ' setup, the van is '88 VIN WV2ZZZ25ZKH001327, but I don't know how old the engine is and to possibly complicate matters I don't have the correct box on, I have a DW 25 01 3 fitted. Does anyone know what is the difference between these two types of 228mm clutches for DJ's and which one is suitable?

According to your vin.. it should tbe the earlier one... but who knows if the engine has been changed...

I dont know what the difference is on the clutches... as they are the same size etc.. maybe the later one has a higher pressure spring... I'll do some digging...

OK, thanks Aid. I'm assuming you're going to VF?
