Has anybody received the LUK 05065 (05-065) clutch kit recently?
Reviews on Amazon are conflicting about the release bearing, some say it is polymer and others say they one they got was metal.
After 380,000 miles, my clutch finally let go. So replacing it this week with the rest of the usual stuff. Going to do the drive shaft universals and universal joint ball while I am in there.
Harbor Freight transmission jack, here I come.

It has arrived and the release bearing is plastic, with some metal strapping around it.
Went to Autozone and got a metal one by National Bearing.
