T5z vs tkx , cost and value.

ChaseRoads said:

Alright !! Here we are. When all was said and done. I paid 2850 for a new tkx. Clutch , pressure plate, flywheel , yoke , clutch fork, shifter , throw out bearing, and a bell housing. Along with most of the needed bolts. The whole thing was discounted because of the bell

Only issue is there is a crack in the bell that was repaired. I’ll post pics below to get your opinions.

Mixed opinions. I'm kinda one to say "Do it once, do it right" But at the same time you may stick with a T-5Z and have years of trouble-free driving based on how you drive, and what your needs are.

Is the extra cost going to break the bank for you? If not, then it might make sense to save a little bit longer and future proof your setup.

Figure the extra cost is an insurance policy. You can save a few bucks and run the T5z and it may blow up, or it may survive everything you throw at it and never have an issue.
