Default My list of clutch kit part numbers

Before finally ending up with the AutohausAZ kit 271265 (Sachs kit K70029-03) I ordered several different kits that probably would have worked but didn't have the same clutch disk with the extra spring set.

Autozone kit number NU31153 would have worked. They also had a kit number NU31153-1 that looked like it had the correct disk but I had already received the AutohausAZ kit by that time. I would definitely try Autozone for this kit. It's a Duralast product. If you look at a picture of this disk here: http://www.autozone.com/autozone/par...er=245009_0_0_ it looks like it will fit around the two flywheel pins shown below. The Sachs pressure plate had to be ground a little to fit around the pins.



O'Riely has a kit K70029-02 that also would have worked but it had the disk without the extra spring set. It was a PTQ, Power Torque kit with the AP pressure plate and the PHC Valeo disk. I didn't check to see if they had the K70029-03 kit with the proper disk. Here's a picture of that kit:


Rock Auto has 2 remaining K70029-03 kits available right now.

There's also a few of the K70029-03 kits on eBay right now.

None of these kits have the correct pilot bearing but look at the linked thread in the first post here for that discussion and part number.

It would also be helpful to have a part number for the sleeve that goes over the transmission shaft that then fits into the pilot bearing, pictured here:


The bottom line is that the original clutch disk with the extra spring set was hard to find. With the above known kit numbers it should be a lot easier. I will get the part number from underneath the AutohausAZ sticker to see if there's a separate part number for the disk only.
