- VY one tonner / gen3 / 6speed
The one tonner (5.7L) slave cyl. is leaking, while the box is out what else should I look at?
Car has 170,000 kms, but my son only owned it for last 20,000.
Have been told these clutches are usually only good for 100,000, so it's either been done before or it's on it's last legs. Have looked into prices for standard clutch $880 plus slave cyl. or Extreme brand HD $1,100 plus slave cyl.
Considering the engine has a MAFless tune I guess the choice is a no brainer.
(I can't believe the flywheel has to be replaced with the clutch, every time something seemingly minor happens to this car, I'm broke for months:bang: lol)
What else should I throw money at while box is out, spigot bearing? can the rear main be done with the sump on, or is it like the old 304 with a rope seal?
Somebody give me some good news I need it.
