Where to get a stock 13" sachs clutch in Alberta?

So I yanked the 12V out of storage and it needs some work, part of which is a new clutch and rear main seal. Sooo with that said I need to order/buy a stock 13" sachs clutch, flywheel, pressure plate etc. Who is a good shop to order from? Preferrably in Edmonton but I'll travel a bit to get a good deal/service.


Thanks guys!

I'm the same as Kenny. I have stock NV4500 clutch and flywheel in the garage. Not sure what to do with it for the last 3 years.

I remember pulling the clutch out on my 93 2wd to do the rear main seal, are the input shafts that different? Or is it the fit in the bell housing?

My understanding is that the stock sachs unit in the 1st gens is a lot more stout than the clutch that came in the 2nd gens with the NV4500. Mainly being that the sachs is a 13" and the other is 12-1/4". Theres a few guys on here that have had the center break in the 12-1/4" and Dave (wannadiesel aka 1st gen guru on here) has stated that anything smaller than the 13" is running on bought time.

Again thanks for the offer.

I have seen some of the smaller clutches hold for many years over 400 hp, before the South Bend 13" conversion kits came out. If you are going to do the clutch now, just get an SBC. The cost isn't more than a stocker and will be ready for your HP upgrades.
