The solid disc is going in and I'll just replace the disc with a sprung disc when I have more time. We'll see how that works out... I don't plan on missing my trip, giving up all my deposits, and very likely parking the car for the entire summer waiting on a ********************ing clutch disc to show up.
Here's the deal directly from Sachs…..

they have this clutch kit in a sprung version it is kit# K70290-01 - it showed up WITH SPRINGS but spindle was wrong size, flywheel was wrong bolt pattern, Throw Out Bearing was HUGE! Definitely not a fit. I am talking to their "product specialists" tomorrow in the AM about it. Would be good to have several members remind them they are or will be losing money IF they do not get it right! I'm sure they will. They have at least matched the picture! now if we can only get the parts that fit.

The Sachs toll free number is: 800-321-0784 and tell them the make and model, or give them this number and ask to speak to a specialist.

See Ya!
