Call Luke --- He will have it all and over night it if necessary

He can tell you all the parts that you will need for the job, as well.

I believe that you have a wet clutch, so that adds one more dimension to the job.

Keep in mind that a clutch cover can be rebuilt, and that a complete two disc clutch (cover, pressure plate, two discs, center plate) can weigh around 100 lbs so looking local is possibly an option to save shipping charges.  In my case I bought the springs and other bits from Luke and rebuilt my clutch myself.  I also replaced both the pilot bearing, the throw out bearing and the lubrication line to the throw out bearing.

This must be a hard one to find. Luke says he is looking. Been about a month now. Are there any other sources?
