I was looking for a flywheel at napa for my 98 jimmy 4x4, There are 2 choices the standard duty flywheel $41.49 That I have 2 of already from previous motor swaps or the heavy duty $95.99 before my discount Would this heavy duty flywheel cause any thickness issues? or any other issues i have not thought of? The H.D. total O.D. diff. is .127mm smaller then the standard flywheel, I dont think that much of a diff. would cause a issue, But thats why i ask


standard flywheel
# Flex Plate Teeth : 168
Balance Weighted : Yes
Crankshaft Diameter : 2.00"
Flex Plate O.D. : 14.130"
Manufacturer : Anchor Industries
Manufacturer Part Number : FA-101

heavy duty flywheel
# Flex Plate Teeth : 168
Balance Weighted : Yes
Crankshaft Diameter : 2.00"
Flex Plate O.D. : 14-1/8" converts to 14.125" slightly smaller
Manufacturer : Anchor Industries
Manufacturer Part Number : FA-101HD

 

It shouldn't make a difference in how it bolts up or operates. It is likely just a thicker, more consistent piece than the standard duty part. The critical dimensions won't be any different.

 

Right on the heavy duty flywheel worked out great, I was able to start on it after lunch i dropped the y-pipe, front/rear d/shafts, c/member etc. The flywheel was cracked in 2 places LoL thanks reman. motor comp. All in all it took me maybe 5-6 hours to swap everything out and back in, Plus i still had to work on cust. cars. THANKS again for the help swartlkk!
