T-56 Clutch w/ 45k-should I use it
I bought a used T56 with 45,000 mi. It came with the flywheel, clutch, pressure plate, and throwout bearing. My initial plans were to get the flywheel resurfaced, and get a new clutch, pressure plate and bearing.
However, my funds are running a little low right now, and probably won't be going up for a while (I have a daughter on the way!). Can I get by reusing the used clutch for now?
Keep in mind that it's been a while since I've drove a stick.....
I might tear up a new clutch anyways......
Thanks!

I learned stick on a 6.9 ltr 6spd....(dump truck @ work).....then i relearned on a gas engine(my 305 TPI 5 spd), I cam out ok if you have previous experance you should be ok. I would put in a new clutch(buy from hSummit or Jegs, NAPA ripped me off, i could have bought a centerforce clutch for what i payed for a standard one) unless you have really low funds, then make sure there is adaqute material, get the fly wheel resrfaced anyway. you have no idea how this last guy drove, he could have messed up the flywheel and you could get clutch chatter then(annoying...trust me, the pick-up @ work does this)
or you could sell your clutch to this guy https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...threadid=85365
