Hi Kevin,

I think you said you quit driving your truck until it can be checked. Thats a real good idea as some of the guys are having the input shaft wiped out from the springs coming out of the disc and also takes out the pilot bushing. That seams to happen even if you catch it early.

Goto thedieselstop.com and do a search for user named Pat Dolan and read up on his clutch problems. He"s a commerical carrier with a F550 and has lost 3 or 4 clutchs. I think he gave up on the LUK clutch as it didn"t prove strong enough. I think his currnt clutch is a SB.

Rumor has it that LUK built the clutch for the late 2001 and up for Fords. I don"t know what build date they started with. I don"t think the exact month was known. It seams like it was June 01 as my 02 build date was 8/01 and it already had the updated clutch.

You might also see if the is a TSB or Oassis notice for the clutch. I haven"t seen one but I haven"t been keeping up with them like I need too. My bookmarks got a worm and I had to delete them and lost a ton of info.
