 Subject: what parts do I need to replace clutch?
IP: Logged
Message:
Hey everyone,
I have a '97 Dakota 4 cylinder 5 speed and the clutch is worn- it doesnt slip- but I let the pedal out almost all the way before it engauges.
Anyway to adjust this?
Im assuming I need a new clutch, so what parts do I need to get? Im assuming since there has been no slippage I can get away without replacing a lot of parts.
Throw out bearing, and since it wasnt a slipping clutch what other parts do I need?
Ball park figures on price would be awesome too.
Thanks for any help.
-John

I am not sure if this will work on the dakota, but you might try adjusting the clutch cable first. it might have stretched a little.

No, you don't/can't adjust a hydraulic clutch. It adjust itself...As for replacing the clutch, you can't get a away with just replacing a few parts. A clutch replace is a major job and if your gonna do it/have it done, might as well as get everything replaced. Clutches range from 200-600 bucks, throw out bearing are like 8 bucks. Since you have a 4 cyl, most like it will be in the lower price range. Also, I would drive it til it starts to slip, my clutch has engaged at the end for over 1.5 years. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

I meant I wouldnt have to replace the pressure plate or get it resurfaced (i think this is what its called). Thanks for the tip though.

My 91 4cyl 2wd (200 Kmi) is getting a little hard to get into first. All other gears feel fine to me and it works great. Dealer says I need new $600 clutch job. Does this really ring true???

As Tripper said, it's a major job, so you should replace the pressure plate, throwout bearing, and get the flywheel surfaced. Consider that these parts have the same miles as the clutch disc.
