My clutch is on its last leg, I ordered a "Grizzly" clutch from SPMotorsports. I just got it today and its a "Rhino Pac" clutch (SAME THING??) I ordered this one because it was kevlar which would last longer than the stock clutch. Also, there were two slips of paper inside the box first one saying "alignment tool not available" BUT the second says "Pilot Bearing/bushing for this application is not currently available" ISN'T THAT IMPORTANT??? Im getting this installed this week, WHAT SHOULD I DO?? Is this clutch even kevlar??

Yes the clutch is Kevlar and yes it is what you ordered Rhino=Grizzly. Not sure about the Pilot bearing, I think the only thing you should definately replace is the throwout bearing/slave cylinder assembly, did the package have anything but the clutch plate and pressure plate?

yeah I got the throw out bearing, pressure plate, and slave cylinder. As long as its better and longer lasting than a stock replacement from ford Im happy
