Then upgrade it now while the transmission is down! No reason to do the same work twice if you know you're going to need to replace it.

For what it's worth (if you decide to do a new clutch), I've been super happy with my southbend stage 2 daily.

I started hearing it at 60K miles but it would come and go with temperature. Drove it to 92K and sounded like trans was going to explode. Made it home, got it towed and am now waiting for dealer to finish replacing clutch, TOB and flywheel among other things. I or the roads I drive on took its toll on the suspension and it lost its original drive quality sooo having all front and rear suspension done also. didn't tell the wife about the suspension. Terrible timing on all this as by boat business is shot from pandemic. Don't want to discuss the cost ahhhh. I'll report back on how the car is after. Daily driver and I need a car...
