Hey guys I looked on ebay and these two clutches seem to be OEM replacements, Sachs and LuK. Which one is better/holds up better/longer life/etc? Any help appreciated! Sid

Well from my own personal findings, and using both the Luk, and the Sachs pressure plates, the Sachs may have a better pressure plate/more plate load over the LUK. I can't verify this with plate load numbers, at least not yet anyway, but i used a Sashs plate with a 6 puck ceramic disk, and a Luk plate with a 4 puck disk, and the LUK slips at 13psi, and the Sachs never did..just food for thought..I am actually going to have both pressure plates, and also a Clutchmasters plate put on a plate load tester to find some real world numbers,here in the near future..more out of curiosity..Oh yeah, I'm moving this to the trans section where it belongs
