You can do the SPEC stage2+ on the stock flywheel for the LNF, not sure on the LSJ. The LNF has to have some dowel holes drilled for larger pins. Some just leave the dowels out & use the bolts only.

You'd have to look into the LSJ options though.

I've never heard of Phoenix clutches and a google search only turns up a thread of someone asking about it on a Cummins disel forum. Nobody there heard of them either.

If you shop around, you can get a Spec Stage 2 for under 450.

Generally the slave cylinder and other parts that you should replace while the trans is out is not included.

No.

Spec clutch is exactly that. Just the clutch. you will also need:

New Flywheel
New TOB
New Slave cylinder

and I would also reccommend changing out the Clutch Master Cylinder as well.

Mine and a buddy of mines' went out shortly after swapping to beefed up clutches.

Find out if my old LNF clutch will fit your LSJ. It held ~340 tq before slipping. Disc even looks new yet at 30k miles.

I'll sell it for $350 shipped UPS ground. See sig.
