Just ordered Marlin's S-HD Clutch

I had just ordered Marlin Crawlers new Super Heavy-Duty clutch kit for $150. I wanted to know if anyone here has experience with it, will my 4runner retain the factory pedal feel?

You'll LOVE it! Made me wish I'd done mine earlier! I noticed a SLIGHT increase in the pressure required to engage, but pretty damned close to stock. MUCH stronger clutch. There are SEVERAL threads here on the Marlin install; do a search & you'll find tons of info.

Awesome! Thats what I wanted to hear. My parents just bought an Acura and I HATE the clutch feel, I stall it left and right its very sensitive and springs back at your leg way too hard. I don't know if its because its brand new or if its just a heavy-duty clutch also but I cant stand it.

Are we talking about the ceramic clutch? You got one of those?

Congrats on your purchase. You will love the clutch, stock feel with a ton more grab. Best of both worlds!

Ooops....I see. There's the 1600lb AND there's a ceramic. I thought they were one and the same.
