    Puma 2.4 clutch replacement parts

    Spent a few hours of quality time with the County today - taking our D2 on a trailer to my daughter and family after their Puma crapped its clutch while in Moama for the weekend.

    The Puma is now at my place, waiting for their benevolent mechanic to do a clutch change.
    Its mostly the daughter's daily drive, but they do use it to tow their 16' caravan when they go away for weekends.

    Whats the current recommendation for a replacement clutch and slave cylinder etc?
    I see Ashcrofts do a HD "Clutchfix" unit, and looks like there's an AP(OEM??) one available easily locally?

    Not so much a recommendation, just what I did- I got a LOF clutch kit from the UK. Also installed their one-piece shaft between the boxes. Too soon to comment on any of it.

    Thanks Pete.
    I've just ordered a LOF "PowerSpec" kit along with a LOF master cyl from LRParts.net.
    The kit includes the slave, adapter and control valve and spigot bearing (which hopefully I won't need) along with a new rear crank seal.
    AUD$890 delivered.

    Supposedly a H/D clutch suited to towing etc but with the same pedal force as original.
    Will see, but at least if the aforementioned daughter ends up with left thigh like a weightlifter she can't say I didn't try to do the right thing

    One thing I can tell you Steve from my rebuild, bleeding the clutch was an absolute pig. I ended up having to reverse bleed it, jury-rigged with some IV fittings and a 50ml syringe.

    Hi Steve,

    How did you manage that price? I went through process and was quoted £380 for freight alone.

    I reckon something has gone wrong with the shipping calc when you did it.

    Here’s my order confirmation from them.

    My mistake as I wasn’t comparing apples with apples. The kit I was looking at included the flywheel.

    Cheers, Peter.

    Yeah - that would bump the freight up!

    I've used most brands of clutches and wont use anything but the ClutchFix brand, yes I do import them direct from ClutchFix (for my own workshop use).

    If the OP does a search, or maybe look at my previous posts? I have posted all the part numbers for the hydraulics and everything you need to do the job, half do it and you will be pulling the gearbox out again to do whatever failed.
