If you are trying to reuse your old clutch I would recommend not to. Clutches aren't very expensive, at least compared to pulling your Transmission for a new clutch. Try to extend that little chore as long as possible and replace your clutch.

I believe that most everything is diferent. Your best bet is to use everything from your 84. No better time to replace your clutch, throw out bearing and pilot bearing. Sometimes you can get the whole kit that includes the preasure plate for not much more money.
