And know i need to choose a diaphragm spring(or coil springs would be better?) but i don't know how to calculate what diameter of diaphragm spring should be. Maybe someone could help?
Its been a while since you posted the question so I am wondering if you were able to figure out. I´m just curious to know if you got an answer.

IF you have a vehicle with these specs I could find it with the whole year/make/model or transmission model but by calculating it based on tech specs I am really curious to learn.

So keep us posted!!! Thx!
