ahhh clutch!!!

ok so my clutch is dead.. i think i can safly drive it to a shop to get it fixed, but was just wondering if it would be be cheaper to order a new clutch disk off line and just have someone put it in. vs. having to buy one from them as well.

what do you guys think?

you can tell if your clutch is gone, buy an after market get it installed and call it a day, well try to see if odering from the place and having them install it would be cheaper, i think online is cheaper

%90 of the time if you have a shop get a part for you the price will get jacked up so they can get a cut--even if it's just a little.

if you definitely need a new cluch shop around for the best price, buy it, and then call a bunch of shops and see what kind of prices you can get for an install.
