Two years ago and only about 10k miles or so, I did the smf conversion when my dmf died. Bought a Luk from Oreiley, as they carried it at the time. Now they don't, and my clutch is already slipping. I have not towed more than 8k lbs, and it started slipping while accelerating up hills, and now it is to the point to slipping while unloaded giving it too much throttle.
I have heard only good things about Luk, but it makes me wonder if they were bought out and/or outsourced. My next clutch will likely be a southbend, as I have used them on my cars without issue.
So far, I have only removed the bottom clutch cover, and I can see the ridges of the clutch, so it is not worn, and there is no oil leaks. It really makes me wonder. I would be curious to hear from other users of Luk smf clutches.
