Yes, Really.... two different things...
While you use adjectives like ' usually' .. which makes it true...
it can also be that a car has 200,000 k miles on it and the springs are fine.. but the friction material wears out...independently ..and the rivets used to attach it... score the flywheel.....
The Result ....
Is that when replacing the clutch you wind up having to take the flywheel out and have it surfaced... as opposed to just being able to put in a new clutch plate and throwout bearing and keep on truckin..
