So my car sees some... uhh I mean allot of abuse. How much can my clutch handle of this. I drop it from like 3-4k quite a bit, shift at like 5k all the time. Love to burnout. So far my clutch seems to still be alright. What are some methods I can use to see how worn it is. And when it is time to get a new one, what am I looking at price wise for a replacement and install. Thanks!

your warranty should cover it if it goes out while under warrant

ive seen a lot of places charge 500 for a clutch install. Ford oem clutch if you order it online runs about 400 dollars for disc and flywheel

forget about replacing it at ford, 1k for labor and parts.

I paid $200 for install of a clutch and flywheel. I wouldnt pay over $300 anywhere it isnt that difficult.

You clutch will be worn out when it starts slipping all the time and smells like it is on fire.

When the time comes to change it I would go aftermarket.

I have a Mcloed RST and am happy, but might be overkill if you arent FI.

I thought ford doesn't do warranty on clutch?

^^^ yeah true, clutch is a wear item like brakes. Only way they would cover it is if there was a mechanical failure on the clutch.

thats a possibility, i am not 100% sure

^^ yeah but if they find out its normal wear or it was abused, they will make you pay for it. So not worth it.
