act clutch reusable?
Hi I was wondering if this pressure plate looks reusable, the pressure plate is a xtreame pressure plate that was running an organic disk.
Thanks

BTW the marks in the pressure plate surface are about .002 deep and there is no cracks.
Thanks

Definitely. I would just scuff the surface of the pressure plate up with sandpaper, clean it good with brake parts cleaner, and go. That looks barely used.

Hi DaleClark thanks for the quick response, BTW on the clutch surface why does it have two inner wear spots and two outer wear spots.
Thanks

Who knows. As long as the clutch was working, it will continue to be just fine.

Thanks

Get an oem full face disk, you'll like it. For break in, I'll take it easy for the first 250-500 miles.

I have the same setup and with an oem full face disk. I had the 6 puck before and it chattered too much for street driving. Still do-able, but not my taste.
