exedy sports tuff.

dont waste your time with locally rebuilt stuff, the exedy kits come with new pressure plates and bearing kit, no exchange necessary.

I bought mine from Speedworks but I know that Tenagah also supplies Excedy.

I just got home from picking up my Exedy heavy duty kit for my Liberty...

When I emailed Exedy they gave me the following contacts:

1. Australian Truck and Auto Parts WA State Office (08) 9356 2499
2. Coventrys Morley Head Office (08) 9276 0135
3. Precision Clutch Services WA (08) 9353 1312


I ended up choosing the first on the list, they gave me the best price on the particular kit I picked out (organic face clutch plate with ~30% stronger 'Heavy Duty' pressure plate). It took about 10days to wait for their next freight load so I didn't have to pay any shipping.

I think my kit is quite different from what you'll be using, as mine is a cable push clutch, and yours is likely a hydraulic pull type, so my price won't be much good to you. Just ring them all and see what they can do. Also if you email Exedy all your car info they'll advise part numbers for you pretty promptly.

Can't wait to get this fitted, currently a decent stab on accelerator while 5th is fully engaged sends the tacho needle moving while the speedo sits...
