Ordered a first set of clutch, paid $800 to have it installed only for the pilot bearing to be bad. I reached out and asked if I could pay for another set so that my mechanic had it to install and then just return the damaged set once he swaps it, they agreed and sent me a return label, it has been 2 weeks now and I think they ve blocked my number because they don t answer.Also new kit the throw out bearing is making a noise, do not buy this company is a joke.

Dishonest people start to finish. Don t listen to eBay reviews for top rated sellers. All the bad ones get deleted in within 24hrs to keep them a top rated seller

***BUYER BEWARE*** This address is used by several different accounts on ebay and Amazon. They sell defective clutch friction disc that fail within weeks of purchase. They will not honor the warranty included in the sale. This is a scam run by Gregory Kim, Jeong Parks , Je Hyung Lee .

Do not buy from here!!!!! Their parts are junk. Brand new clutch mine is a pull type, the lock collar is so cheap it won t hold the throw out bearing in place. New flywheel new clutch new pressure plate new pilot bearing new throw out bearing and as soon and you start the car it will pop out. STAY AWAY!!!!!!! They refuse to help they just tell you to ship it back and then hopefully they give you your $340 back.

Bought a lightened flywheel from them on ebay for 07-08 Honda fit. The pilot bearing hole in the flywheel is too big. Tried to contact them many times with no reply. S@#T company.

Amazing Experience, was helped out instantly, amazing service, it was said that the item I was looking for was not in stock. Then Bruce from Gripforce went out of his way to research more about my item I was looking for. Then after a minute, Bruce came out with the product I needed. The staff there are extremely friendly, professional, & eager to help you out!

My experience has been positive. Took the time to discuss items and applications of them to help best choose what I wanted. They are the experts and I used their knowledge. Packaging was great and shipping was extremely quick. During my build, this transaction was the best experience of the entire build . Thank you for the extra flare for customer service and understandingMark

I bought a clutch kit back on February 9th, when I finally got around to opening it, the clutch disc was missing so I couldn't even install it. Now I cant even send any emails to them. The contact on the website doesn't work, and finally they wont even pickup the phone to just ask if they could ship the clutch disc that I ordered. So I'm out about $100 and still have to go buy a clutch from an actual reputable company.

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY. Absolutely horrible customer service and faulty parts. Bought clutch and flywheel. After installed it had horrible chatter. I contacted seller, they blamed it on oil contamination. I assured them there was no oil as I am EXTREMEMLY careful when installing. I took pictures to prove this theory wrong. They continued to blame me for the issues. I then took the Flywheel to a clutch machinist an they indicated that the flywheel was not resurfaced correctly. It was off by .02.I find it interesting how they have 100% satisfaction on Ebay but you cannot leave feedback for this company on Ebay. I guess anybody can have 100% satisfaction of nobody gets asked the truth.

I have bought a clutch from them . I tried to get it installed about a month later since we were waiting for other parts for the vehicle. when we were ready to install it, We found out that they have sent an clutch kit that is not compactible with the car. I contacted them for a return and refund. They said they will send a shipping label. Few days later they did not send a label saying that it was over 30 days and I need to ship it. After I shipped the part back, I contacted them. Not only I had to pay $30 for the shipping, now they don`t respond to my messages or refund me.

This company is a rip off. They will not stand by their 12 month warranty and are trying to tell me that they need pics of the parts which are currently installed on my vehicle. Had a professional mechanic change the clutch pressure plate throw out bearing etc which all came with the kit. Once installed the Jeep wouldn t go into gear then slave cylinder acted up had professional change slave cylinder now it still won t go in gear and the throw out bearing is making a noise again. Noticed them and they ask if I bought the correct flywheel ??? The kit I bought from them came with it! Then ask me if we installed the correct slave cylinder. My Jeep only had a bad throw out bearing to start with. After using this kit the Jeep has been not drivable for 6 months and they refuse to back the warranty and insist on pics. So I ask doI have to pay to have the parts taken off in order to obtain a pic ???

This is by far the worst company to buy ANYTHING FROM!! I purchased a clutch from this company after it was installed it didn t work! After I paid 1k in labor had to pay again for it to removed and replaced with a better clutch I purchased from another company. This company made me pay the shipping cost and a restocking fee!!!!!!!! PLEASE SAVE YOURSELF TIME AND MONEY AND LOOK ELSE WHERE!!!!!! Only reason I gave 1 start because no star wasn t available

I bought a clutch kit from them for $260 and being disabled was not able to get to the project right away . When I finally did I found that I had ordered the wrong part . I contacted them and explained the situation to them and was told I could send it back and pay the difference of $130 for the right part . So I paid the $20 got the tracking number and contacted them about a week after they received it back since they did not contact me . I have asked numerous times for the invoice and have not received it though I was told a few times that they were waiting for the ok to send it . So going on over a month and have been ignored and there phone just goes to a voice mail box that is not set up . So I have been screwed out of $280 stay away from this company read all the other bad reviews online not on ebay liars and theifs

Waited several days to ship, After They said it had shipped. Contacted customer service on 2 occasion about an incomplete clutch kit, Did not get a call back. Received an e-mail with INCORRECT information. Had to buy correct parts elsewhere. Spend a little more money and buy better quality from a better supplier.

I always try to buy Exedy clutch for my toyota car. bought a kit at gripforce. Got it installed and working great. Feel like a new car again how it pick up at speed is incredible... Installing the fly wheel, you need at least some new set of bolts, unless you want to keep the old one, make sure you use red thread locker, tip, squat inside the thread hole, not on the bolt. my torque spec was at 58 ft lbs, in a star pattern style... I didn't need to use the pilot bearing because my toyota does not have a pilot shaft and its very short shaft, having none won't hurt it. Believe this was my 2nd set I bought from here. CS was great from what I have experience.

Awful awful customer support. I had ordered from them on eBay after seeing how good the reviews were just to search them up on google later and find out I ve been lied to. After I requested a refund they decided to ship the clutch instead I ve never had a company ship a package less than 10 hours after a order is placed. These guys are money hungry scammers. When I was interested in buying the item and asking questions about the product the answers came as quick as possible but when I ask to be refunded they are no where to be seen. Joke of a company hope you guys get taken down on eBay and lose all your business.Update: it turns out in my original review the seller had just created a label and sent me a message through eBay saying I would be refunded, as I thought to myself maybe these guys weren t that bad to scam money from a student who just wants to have his car back on the road to be able to attend classes. Now a day passes and instead of a refund being processed I get a message from eBay that the item has been shipped. Now not only will I have to pay duties and send the item back I m without my car for weeks and have no money to put it back on the road until I send it back. Absolutely disappointed. Once again terrible business and support team. Garbage.

Purchased a clutch from them on eBay. The clutch sent did not fit and they were horrible to deal with and refused to refund. Had to dispute through eBay. Strongly recommend you buy from another seller who knows their stuff.

Sent the wrong pilot bearing (too large outer race, thrown in loose in the pressure plate box without even a bag around it), sent a "lightweight flywheel" with only 6 bolt holes for the pressure plate (stock is 9), sent a crappy aftermarket input shaft bearing that has roughly twice the sleeve surface area for the inner sleeve.Won't be leaving negative feedback on ebay because after being placed on hold for 8 minutes, was lied to on the phone about receiving a refund for the cost of just the pilot bearing in exchange for positive feedback. Customer service sucks, products are misadvertised, YMMV.

Purchased a oem style clutch kit and flywheel. After installation I'm notified it's a "retro fitting" kit. Apparently the term retro means not correct!! This was blantanly the wrong flywheel, now I'm stuck out of money and labor. Very very poor customer service. Will never deal with this company or one of it's affiliated eBay stores again.

Bought from them twice. Impossible to contact. Zero customer service support. Will not help you if you have an issue and absolutely destroy you with return shipping and restock fees.
