Hi, well it finally happened clutch went on 2000 Tj after 166,500 Mi, i started worrying @ 75K But I am stuck in Pitt County area Eastern NC. Need a new real jeep Tj Mechanic. Can i do work YES! will I do it NO!!! Rather pay someone $1200.00+-. Since it's my pressure plate. I'm going whole hog New Flywheel, clutch fork, clutch kit and new master/slave hydraulics. NEXT? Please let me know if you have a reliable Guy.
 
Thanks everyone, Its been a month that jeep has been down but now's all good. Did something I never thought i'd do. Got Tjs clutch done at Jeep Dealer. Being some one that worked at dealerships. Getting service there I am quite phobic. But with today's throw-away cars finding major repair center isn't easy. And I thought a clutch is a wearable part like brakes went to 3 mechs 2 would do work for around $1300.00 6 Mos warranty. Even 20 years with same mech, he showed hesitance to do work. So I bit the bullet and had them add new seals and main engine rear seal. All-in-all dealer found OEM parts plus OEM seals gaskets and new rotors brakes for $1899.66 2 year warranty unlimited mileage.
