clutch woes

[chrisk224]

Afternoon Porter. Sounds like a fine mess you have. I have had experience with Southland Clutch and they are first class. I would recommend calling them and discussing your issue with Dan the owner. Have some photos available as well. I think he will be able to give you a diagnosis over the phone. If it’s condemned then start shopping. There are many sources for replacements. 
Keep us posted. 
Cheers Chris

Usually even with shipping it comes in lower than other domestic parts places...to the tune of one hundred + dollars for the big $ items like a full clutch kit.
