[QUOTE="Silversn95, post: 1485501, member: 10515"] I wonder if your initial issue with the Luk clutch was just a clutch cable adjustment issue. Hard to imagine refinishing a flywheel would be enough to cause a problem. I went with a new Luk flywheel since it was similar price to getting the stock one resurfaced. New valeo clutch assembly and ford performance throwout bearing as well. Funny thing is, the valeo kit came with what appeared to be the same bearing. Looked identical. The only difference is it came in an unmarked box where the Ford bearing came in an identical box but with the Ford label on the side I also changed out the damaged bearing retainer sleeve with the steel Ford performance part. Felt good to do it myself but I'm not sure I would do it again. Just too much of a pain working under the car without a hoist and there was a couple times an extra pair of hands would have helped a lot. End result is a smooth operating clutch that feels a little lighter and a little more progressive than before. Still not beating on it until the break in period is over (500 miles).
