Get an exedy clutch from anywhere for about $90. Exedy is an OEM to many japanese car companies. Some TRD clutches are made by Exedy.

I got my clutch kit from Kragen for $120 its been workin great! I don't remember what type it is though. It came with a clutch disc, pressure plate, throw out bearing, pilot bearing, and alignment tool. Make sure you replace all of those as well as resurface your flywheel when you do it. Another idea, replace the rear main seal...they tend to leak after a while and while you're there you might as well.

check a local junkyard and see if you can find one. Or check Kragen or Napa or whatever automotive parts store you like. Marlin also has them:

Having driven an "OEM replacement" clutch and my truck with a Centerforce, I'd recommend popping for the better aftermarket one if you can spare the little bit extra. The oem clutch I drove felt HORRIBLE! Really grabby. I've driven trucks with both my lower end centerforce and the top of the line one, both are great feeling and last longer than stockers.
