DODGE CHOOSE THE BORG & BECK CLUTCH
When you are choosing a clutch for a new vehicle—what do you look for? A. reliable and well-known manufacturer-naturally; but also a highly evolved product that's exactly right for the job... a background of imaginative research and development. . . and a first-class servicing network.

Only Borg & Beck offer such a complete standard range: indeed, only B org & Beck offer such a wide range of all types of clutch.
