[QUOTE="patooyee, post: 451111, member: 483"] I don't drive my truck all that often so when something changes gradually over time I generally realize it since I'm not getting used to small changes every day. When I first got mine only about the last 25% of pedal did anything for the clutch. I felt like over time that has been getting less and less and after driving it the other day I am confirming to myself that it is true. I'm down to probably about 13% of the pedal now. This makes me think the clutch may be on its way out. Truck is all stock, will remain all stock until the end of time, 116,000 miles. One thing I never liked about the stock clutch is that it had a dead-spot. It was this weird area where it grabs, then slips for a brief second, then grabs again. It almost feels like if it has a dual-mass flywheel tit is binding the springs up and then the springs are releasing causing a minute slip as the two masses snap back together. I could just be reading too much into it though. Anyone else experience this with the stock clutch? What do people recommend for me? I would like my clutch to be a little less "tricky." By that I mean right now you have to be perfect with the application of power to clutch to get a smooth start. Otherwise it is harsh and wants to buck. I feel like all other manuals I've ever driven are more forgiving. [/QUOTE]
