94 B4000.
I've decided that I'm done trying to fix my non-disengaging clutch from the outside. I have bled twice, once traditionally and once with vacuum, and two different shops tried - one did the inverted master cylinder thing, and one used that fancy reverse bleeder thing.
PO had receipts for clutch kit, slave, master, and pilot bushing, but in the 30k or so I've had it, it just keeps getting worse. I sometimes have to turn the engine off to get it in gear.
So if I'm pulling the trans anyway to diagnose things, I see no reason to put it back together with old parts since I can get new stuff cheap.
I use this truck like an F150. 70% of the time it is a DD with a little lumber in the back. The other 30% of the time it's towing 4000 lbs around town in the hills or on the highway always shifting (because 160 hp doesn't like 3500 lbs worth of boat behind it.)
What type and brand of clutch would you get and why? Kevlar? organic? metallic? ceramic?
