Rhino pak clutches?
« on: Mar 27, 2008, 09:27:17 PM »
 The mechanic that pulled my motor recommended a Rhino pak clutch for an oem feel.
I'm thinking of a more HD (marlin) application with easy pedal pressure. but what about rhino pak anyone have experience w them?

I can say that I have sold them...not thru napa but one of our local suppliers. they are a OEM quality clutch, and made in china or taiwan of wherever. not too bad of quality, actually, considering the price. I have not had one come back.

I searched and I found this: (this is a Glen said kind of thing, but I take his word for it)

 
Marlin gets his clutch kits from a Japanese company called AisinSeiko  or  something,  like that,  they are special ordered  and the bearings  are OEM  Japanese  made Toyota quality
