Hi Guys, today while driving down the highway i noticed that the clutch began to slip. My defender goes into real gnarly uphills every week for about 2-3 hours. its constantly out there so im not surprised that the clutch is showing symptoms of wearing out at 30,000km. Im down in Nicaragua where there is a dealership, however the dealership will charge about $2,500.00 for original clutch kit and parts with labor. I usually buy my stuff from FlatdogUK and send the stuff over to Nicaragua but with something so critical as a clutch im not sure which one to get... my defender is a puma TDCI, the mechanic said I also need a bearing... also not sure which one to get

Thanks guys already placing an order with them. are the AP driveline clutch kits considered uprated or upgraded or better performance than stock?

Looks like the original was superseded so make sure you get all the bits to make it work!
