im guessing this wont work with a 2.8CRD engine.
i heard somthing ages ago that the diesel engine has a different clutch system to the 3.8ltr anyone know?

Got a response:


Good Morning Todd,
Thanks for the e-mail.

We just released this clutch assembly, we have our CENTERFORCE I, CENTERFORCE II and our DUAL FRICTION, you would have to contact one of our dealers for pricing, we do not sell direct.

Just got off the phone with a Canadian dealer and he is going to get back to me on the price for the Dual Friction. He was saying that the price between the II and the Dual Friction (Stage III) is like $10 and if you wheel pretty hard the Dual Friction is the way to go.

They are so new the part numbers arent even updated so he has to call Centerforce.

Keep you guys updated unless someone wants to find an American dealer.

Finally!! I have had the clutch squeal for quite a while now and have been reluctant to get it fixed because it just seems to return and I, like many here, do not trust my stealership. Now that my warranty is out I will try and replace it myself. I have been waiting for Centerforce to release a new clutch for the Jeep. Can't wait to get this done.

Ok so I got the call back

Basically for the 3 different clutches they range from $400-$500 CANADIAN (sorry guys I checked with a local guy, you can do your own math.)

Centerforce I is 30% more grab than stock $410 CAN
Centerforce II is 60% $470
and the Dual Friction is 90% more. $520

This was from a Dealer in Toronto and he said about $50 shipping due to the weights. If you go on the site it will tell you US guys where to order from and you can call for a quote. part numbers are in the original post.

Regardless this is a nice update and thanks to to OP for posting this
