    Default 1998 VS 3.8L Ute Clutch/Gearbox

    Hi guys just wondering if anyone knows what clutch or gearbox is in the 1998 VS Ute. I dont know much about cars and cant seem to find anything too definitive.
    I need to replace the clutch and need to know if it has the dual mass fly wheel?? :/
    Or if anyone knows how easy (or hard) it is to convert to a solid flywheel and hd clutch?
    Would really appreciate any help or directions to previous threads on the subject.
    Cheers

    Would most likely be a Dual mass flywheel/ Getrag Gearbox.

    The easiest way to tell is if next to your brake fluid reservoir you have another reservoir you have a Hydraulic clutch used on the Getreg gearbox which uses a Dual Mass flywheel.
    Greg GSLRallySport (Forum sponsor) will be able to hook you up with a Solid Flywheel and Clutch conversion.
