hey whats up guys, I just got a new yota and I was wondering if you guys can point me to a good webstore. I need a new clutch for it and I just need to know the cheapest place to buy a replacement.

It's the 3.0 and I"m also looking for new rear leaf springs to fix the sag problem.

-Thanks guys.

www.marlincrawler.com has some good clutches and as far as the sag just through in an AAL from 4wheelp parts

I'm not really looking for add a leafs cause I'm going to be doing a lot of towing with this, so I'd rather change out the entire spring.

ok... then you might want to try OME or possibly see what toyota wants... I dont know of any other places that sell replacment leafs with out welding hangers or adding lift

Autozone, as well as many other stores, if you want to order them, sell replacement leafs. They also sell add-a-leaf kits and adjustable load bearing fa-la-la-la-la stuff. 4wheelparts.com can also get springs.
I suggest getting springs, not OEM, but something with a bit higher rate, not necessarily a 'lift' spring, and using a load-distributing hitch setup or load-sensing air-bags. I know the truck should not pull anything more than about 3500 pounds gross weight (trailer AND load). Given the standard 60/40 weight split recommended for trailers, that amounds to about 600 lbs on the hitch of the truck. The weight distributing system will counter that and keep your new springs from sagging.
Also, bear in mind, that ANY trailer grossing more than 1500 lbs HAS to have brakes, operational brakes at that, in order to be towed legally, which means either hydraulic brake actuators on the trailer, or an electronic brake controller in the tow vehicle. I lean towards hydraulic brakes since that means ANY vehicle can tow it as long as the vehicle is rated for the tow weight.

The one from Marlin Crawler is the best.

It works the best and is by far the lowest cost and most complete.


You won't be disappointed.


Don't waste your money on the Centerforce Dual Friction gizmo clutch. It sucks, doesn't last, doen't hold any better than stock and is 3x the price, plus you have to get the throwout, pilot and a tool extra (all included in the marlin.)

Thanks monstermaxx. So you think I should get the semi- metallic clutch kit right?

And about the springs. I wanna get some Old Man Emu Springs. Can anyong get me a direct link to some springs that will lift the rear end 2"s???

And do I need new shocks since I'm getting bigger springs?
