Hays B&B piece of s---
I am really leery of it. After all, it says Hecho en Mexico on the pressure plate housing.
Now I wish I had gone with the Centerforce.
I believe I seen one of those Hecho en Mexico stickers on the centerforce as well. maybe hecho means asembled? Well, heres some info to throw into the mix. I just installed the centerforce dual friction. I bought the CF TO bearing as well to be safe in case something went wrong, so they would`nt say, we don`t warrenty if you use other manufacture componets. I waited for 500 mi. to get into it as recomended. I start to hear groaning from the clutch componets, I figured the Z bar or pedal asembly, cause it made the same noise with my previous clutch, borg beck style. I jack it up and was going to relube Z bar piviots, and a neighbor stopped by and I put his foot to work to try and find where the noise was coming from. Come to find out it was the Pplate fingers and TOB, groaning when pedal was depressed. Mind you this groan could probably be heard, by somebody in the next lane:angry7: I noticed little scaring and teeny chips on the TO bearing perimeter, probably jamming inbetween the centrifugal weights. As long as it does`nt get any worse it won`t bother me. By the way, I decided to leave the OC spring in to see if it would stick to the floor, as mentioned, and it did`nt, so that was the first thing to take out, trying to loose the groan, no help. On the positive side, the centerforce is WAY less pedal effort, grabs good, but damn, I cant stand a groanie clutch:-D I told my buddy this senairo, and he said they all do that? I`ve owned a lot of manual vehicles and never heard this in the others.? Centerforce-only time will tell, knock on wood8)
