    Center force clutch

    Looks like part number is correct but description is wrong...the disc fits and is the correct size and spline. Comes with an actual pilot bearing not a bushing.

    Clutch pedal squeak

    just making it thicker wont solve the issue. the bends stiffen the plate and the tabs tie it into the surrounding structure. this is what adds the support. just adding a thicker plate might help but it will need to be significantly thicker to see the same benefit. and it covers the same area...
