dual friction centerforce clutch for 3.4 and 3.o throwout bearing...
ok, so today i bolted on my brand new centerforce dual friction clutch on my 3.4. i slid my 3.0 transmission into place almost effortlessly. finished bolting up the transmission and all of the rest of crap that i have on this truck. jumped in and noticed that the pedal was almost rock solid. i started the truck and went to press the clutch and the stiffness went away but there was a popping and a huge amount of noise inside the bellhousing. so i pulled the transmission back off and found that my throwout bearing was destroyed. the biggest difference between this clutch is the centrifugal weights built onto the pressure plate that now have markings on them from what seems like the throwout smacking into them.
the question to all of this is that, can i use a 3.4 throwout on the 3.0 transmission? the design of the throwout between the 2 transmissions has to be my issue. i had a centerforce on my 3.0 as well but it did not have the weights.
