My 97 TC at 55K miles, has developed an annoyance! Under hard acceleration in 5th the clutch slips. Different oil types, full synthetic, half synthetic and dino don't make any difference. I understand there is a clutch spring replacement kit available that corrects yamma momma's design deficiency in this area. Does anyone have experience with this? Also, whats the general concensus concerning the type of clutch plates to get to replace what's there. This looks to be a winter project to keep my beast happily on the road. Thanks

Gary,

99% is that it's the clutch spring, my '99 is doing the same thing and Al Bates '02 was doing the same.

Here's a thread he started and the place to get an upgraded clutch assy.

I will be going this route when I get a few sheckles back in the bank.
