    It's an 89 Toyota Pickup. I got some stuff done to it.. FJ axles going under it soon.
    Normal driving?
    Performance oriented?
    Wheeling/desert running?
    What do you use your truck for?

    Normal driving I recommend Exedy OEM replacement clutches...they are fairly cheap and GREAT clutches...they are around $150. I had one in my old 2WD Tacoma

    Performance oriented(if you plan on boosting the truck), then I recommend Competition Stage 4...they are around $350.

    Wheeling/desert running..I'd get a Marlin HD 1200lb..300lb extra on pressure plate over stock. My cousin has one in his Taco..great investment for cheap and great for wheeling..like $185.
