As a testament to how cheap i am.
Just wondering if anyone knows where you can buy just the friction disc? The 9" disc for 2001 m56.
I bought one years ago off ebay for $15 bux or something like that but now I only seen to be able to buy the whole kit.
That'll be $400 canuk bucks by the time it's at my door

My flywheel and pressure plate have almost zero wear so I thought i'd at least try to find one.
cheers

You might call the clutch rebuild people. I picked this one off the 'net.

Thanks for the heads up!

This seems like an awesome resource.

If you go ahead with this, let us know how it turns out.

I reached out to Falcon clutch to see if they could help and apparently they don't stock clutch disc our Volvo's but he did say he could fix me up if I supplied the rebuild-able disc core.
Unfortunately it's not any less expensive that buying a LUK rep set. (clutch kit) from Rock Auto and he told me as much.
So not a big deal really because I already knew what that cost.
This 2001 V70 is teetering on the edge of stay or go. Only thing saving it right now is it's three pedals and how many $$$ I already have into it.
Oh the trials and tribulations of owning old Volvo's.
