    I went 866000+ miles on the first clutch in my truck before the clutch disk springs broke. The clutch in my truck now has over 278000 miles on it and has only needed adjustment once.

    BigSam... Thanks for the info and BTW I love your picture. Big German Shepherd fan here. We have one along with an 11 Malinois. :biggrin_25521:

    That is also good to hear! I am hoping that maybe they already replaced it recently... and I have nothing to worry about.
