Would You Use A Britpart Clutch?

I'm doing an engine swap on my 110 soonish and was thinking about doing the clutch at the same time. I already have a brand new ****part 200tdi clutch in my parts store but I know the clutch on the disco motor was okay as I've run the disco for the last year and had the box out to replace the clutch fork as it failed last June.

What would you guys do?

your old disco clutch is bound to have wear on the diaphragm fingers even if clutch is still good ,id fit a new borg and beck or other good make

dont

With the reputation of britpart do you want to change the clutch again when it breaks. Get a new decent one ( Borg and beck) and forget all about it and concentrate on everything else that needs fixing

Hell no! Dont do it m8, invest in a good make or you will be stripping it again soon!

Apparently Britpart clutches are generally ok. Have heard some reports of rattly springs in the friction disc though.

But... for the sake of doing the job properly first time around... fit an AP Driveline (used to be called Borg & Beck) clutch kit and forget about it.

No don't do it !!!!!

I fitted an Andrew Page own brand (Drive Master) clutch kit to Citroen Relay a couple of weeks ago and it was an LUK clutch kit in the box at half the price of others.

You get what you pay for I always use genuine clutches

****part cant even make a series washer jet that is capable of hitting the cab roof never mind the windscreen

so a clutch is well out of the question ..........prolly make em out of chocolate !!

I wouldn't risk a ****part clutch, for no other reason than the reputation ****part have got

It's not something you want to have to do twice

As it's one of those things that is a pain in the arse to change I would strongly reccommend getting a good one (not sh*tpart)

Ive been running a britpart hd clutch for he last 12000kms over the last 15 months and all is well, personally i would but then you might not, for the extra few quid if you get peace of mind then go for the other brands

Dare I say it I fitted a Genuine part last year ( A Genuine Britpart that is)
I wish I hadn't now I've read the above posts.
In all seriousness though Its been fine, its a heavy duty one and I welded the fork so that it didn't give any issues.
Yes it had noisy springs when engaged at idle but not now it's worn in.
Done about 12k on it no problems(touch wood)

Can't say the same about the fuel sender unit though!!!!!

The last clutch I bought came in a blue box but inside it was all AP Driveline branded, just with a Britpart pricetag Not complaints yet.

I think Grimmer sums it up.....***part have gained a reputation for a good reason ( whether all is true or not ) and replacing a clutch should hopefully be a once only job and is it really worth taking a chance with ? ( You'll be hearing and reacting to every little noise etc if you fit it - lol )

When I go into Liverpool LR I always ask that I'm not supplied with a ***part unless they actually recommend it.

i fitted britpart 3 years and 35,000 miles ago, never been a problem, unlike there polyuethene bushes

Usual story

Britpart supplied OE or G - fine and usually cheaper due to their volumes

Britpart own brand - best avoided IMO

I never had a problem with a britpart clutch, other britpart stuff yes

I fitted them to my last 3 land rovers without a problem

i dont want to give my money to ****part full stop.

i have wasted enough money driving back and forth to craddocks etc replacing there crap/pattern/i dont give a chuff about the consumer/bollocks for years and so now i dont want to support there horrible little company.

So i dont care if there genuine or OE, id rather fit something from a different company. As soon as i open something to find its in a blue box 9/10 times it goes back.

****ers.
