    Can someone confirm that the 2.4 and 2.7 flywheel is different?
    If so what is the difference?
    Best source for Lightest aluminum fly wheel for my 2.7?

    I can second this^^ i am running their 19lb steel flywheel in my 2nd gen 2.7 and its awesome. Takes a little finesse to release the clutch on inclines now, but it's still very drivable once you get used to it

    Left my flywheel stock, but running their pro clutch kit. Love it! Night and day difference for wheeling, less slippage on the street, but makes it fun with a lunchbox locker in all situations :D

    I have read in the Turbo bs thread to avoid buying stuff through them. I havent had any experience with them personally, but i know other folks have had less than pleasing experiences

    Gave you a cheaper option from a very well-respected company. I'd think that's the better option.

    A lightweight flywheel isn't ideal for offroad use, if that's your intention with the truck.
