Hi guys,

So my stock clutch is busted and i need a new one,

i thought that you guys would give me some advice,

since I'm taking down the t3650 to replace the clutch i want to replace the slave cylinder and the throwout bearing as well,

I'm thinking of a RAM clutch but i don't know which is better i have my eyes on

- RAM Automotive 88952HDX http://www.summitracing.com/parts/R...Year|2005|Make|FORD|Model|MUSTANG&prefilter=1

- RAM Powergrip 98952 http://www.summitracing.com/parts/R...Year|2005|Make|FORD|Model|MUSTANG&prefilter=1

I also found the OEM slave on brenspeed

Mustang GT OEM Ford Slave Cylinder (05-10)

I'm still locking for a throwout bearing since those kit don't include one, should i just by a new one from ford ?

so what do you guys think ?

Thanx

The OEM slave and throwout bearing are one unit - there is no separate throwout bearing. As for clutch I'd do the McLeod RST for a N/A car and RXT for F/I. The OEM slave will work fine with that clutch. I'd also recommend getting the matching flywheel from McLeod.

Mcload is great man but I live overseas with that price tag and shipping price...I think that RAM is much suitable for me
Thanx for the heads up on the slave
