Going to be doing a clutch in my 1997 TJ, was wondering what opions out there are on which kit would be best? Would like a kit that would include everything I would need. Have read a lot of positive things about LUK clutches which kit would be the best? Posibly one that contains throwout bearing piot bearing slave cylinder the whole shabang? thank you all for your time

Dial a clutch is fantastic to deal with...i've also read posts with people going on ebay and getting a great deal on a kit as well.
05-065 If it's a 4.0L. Parts Geek has about the best deal I've found at just under $100 with shipping. I've ordered about three from them in the past year or so, and they typically get here in about 3 days without any issues.

EDIT: I see in your other post that you have a 2.5L. Here's a link for the one for your 2.5. http://www.partsgeek.com/catalog/1997/jeep/wrangler/clutch/clutch_kit.html 2nd one down, it's about $4 cheaper.

Yeah, true...i just assumed his was a 4.0 when i gave the part number lol

Thanks for mentioning parts geek as well...i was going to order my kit from them a few weeks ago but wasnt sure if it was a complete kit or if it was missing any bearings or shafts which would be needed separately.

Glad to know its complete...

I replaced my original clutch at 80,000+ due to the throw out bearing retainer spring rusting away. The original clutch looked awful good, it was one of those..."While I am there" kind of things.

The replacement has about 200,000 miles on it, the original will go back if this one ever wears out.
