Lipe Clutches

I'm not concerned about looking like a rookie.... I do that already!

You say easier to install... I thought you had a mechanic doing that for you. How long did it take to install? Did your get a 1 piece brake or a 2 piece?

 

reed,

where do you want me to start?

1 quality, eaton uses cheaper disc steel...which causes the spring "eyebrow" to crack, causing the spring to fall out...which is a death blow to a clutch

2. 2 year unlimited mileage warrenty, if something breaks in that clutch that is the factorys fault (workmanship) its replaced with a new one (not a rebuild)

3 easier to adjust, adjusting nuts are on the neck of the throwout bearing meaning you dont have to bump the starter to get the nut to the bottom

4 easier to install.... piece by piece instillation

5. lipe just introduced a 2400 ft lb torque clutch...something else that other clutch makers dont have

6. if you pull lipes can be modified to make more than one pass, clamp loads can be pushed in upwards of 6000 lbs (no warrenty implied)

7. better customer service......they just dont say you left leg tore it up...have a nice day...they will work with you.....

8. all number cross with spicer numbers so theres no mixup

 

Does have lipe have a website? A list of dealers? Installation centers?

 

reed,
lipe does have a web site www.setcoauto.com

dealers, yes...but it depends on where your at in the country...i know of some places that do sell them.....instillation centers?....not sure

 

I live in North Georgia. I'll look at the website when I've got a chance

 

north georgia......you would be better off calling the plant....if you need one...gimme the specs of the truck and how much weight you pull and ill give you the clutch number....im a ex truck driver myself, so i can relate to what you tell me

 

hey lipeman hope if you try pushing those 6000lbs ones you tell these guys to get with your old buddy Joe.
tried to calling your cell phone back later on that day and you must of already left. i talked to paul and told him i did like dealing with you and hoped it was only a temperary thing b/c you did do good for the company. heck i must of been right who tries to help a company out even when not at work.

 

You can get one from Pi pwr for 800
