Default Mcleod 2 disc ?

My clutch has been slipping ,after removing it I noticed very uneven ware on the flywheel (aluminium with steel insert).
My question is can I have all componants rebuilt including the flywheel?
and how much would I save?

The flywheel should be rebuildable, drill out the rivets and install new steel insert. I'm not sure if McLeod sells a kit or does it as a service though.

Thanks,
Is it cost effective to go with a rebuilt setup?

What do ya think of the uneven ware on the flywheel?
One half looks new the other is worn badly with a lip.

I think the flywheel was not running true (excessive runout).
Now...the question is "why?"

Honestly I don't think it should be *that* bad, but I have no idea.... Best to call McLeod or one of their distributors (Summit comes to mind).
