The Schaeffler Luk throw out bearing in kits is widely considered junk on these forums and in videos. My feeling is that if true would not say much for rest of the product. I’m doing an internal to external slave swap on my little 2.5 with a sourced AX5 and bellhousing. I want to go in one time and get a couple years until I’m dead. Any opinions? I’m really curious if any of you experienced jeep guys have tried their throw outs.
 
I used a LUK clutch kit in my 91/2.5 with no issues. Ive read more bad related to the "special" clutch kits than any of the oem style kits. Id use one again if I needed one.
