Clutch & Flywheel

Hello there... New to online forum here but member on other pages off of Facebook and etc.. I have a question for the 6speed frontier owners here...
By the way I have a 2013 Nissan Frontier Pro4x with about 143000 on it right now. I put about 130miles on her a day. I got it with about 115miles on it and she’s been great to me. Recently I noticed a little slip while accelerating it jumps about 200-300rpms. It happened couple time here and there.
Due to this I’ve been doing some research and have come across the JWT 275mm CLUTCH & FLYWHEEL. Apparently it’s the best option for our truck. So I’m wondering if anyone here has experience with it?

And i also heard there are group buys here and there... just wondering if anyone planning on starting one soon? Let me know please and thank you!!!

IIRC, these OEM clutches will generally just go out w/o much warning. So, it sounds like you're getting a sign?
Best bet is OEM clutch and replace dual mass flywheel since it cannot be resurfaced. Going aftermarket seems like a gamble to me.
Keep us posted especially if you go w/ that JWT. There are some threads here...some hit, some miss. Try an Advanced Search?

That's a sharp rig you've got. Dual mass FW addresses NVH best. I'm not up on costs of aftermarket vs OEM. If you'll be doing the work/switch, then try something different. Sounds like fun...in a way. lol My wrenching days are over. Will go Nissan parts cuz I think they'll last longer.

A member tried a Phoenix Kevlar clutch lately w/o good results. He then went OEM.

Replaced my clutch with an Exedy and the dual mass with a JWT lightweight flywheel.
Absolutely love it.
