Strongest Clutch Upgrade 86 4runner Expedition build

I need to replace my clutch ASAP, and want to upgrade flywheel and any other components at the same time. Any suggestions of brands that will best accommodate more weight/bigger tires/trailer towing. I'm currently looking over all others builds. Thx

Clutch and appropriate flywheel made for turbo models are tougher

Pressure plate and disc are larger diameter, so correct flywheel is necessary.

I would worry more about hydraulic failure then the clutch hard parts.

One can nurse a failing clutch quite a distance.

Now if your talking enough torque in the engine to just twist the center out of the clutch that is a different story.

Then different climates one looks at different things in a build of this type.

It might. Since LCE's got the stronger 2100 lb. pressure plates. Which are supposedly stiffer than stock...
Wait...where the hell are we going with this?

I might order from LCE tomorrow, the clutch kit with the 30lb flywheel. I need to repair asap. I would replace master/slave also. Has anyone used LCE? Is it rebranded Trail Gear?

LCE looks to have a bunch of their own stuff but looks to carrier TG SAS kits perhaps other stuff too. LCE is really proud of their assembled difs!! Their clutch kits don't look like TG kits.
