Hello,
Fiber would be like the original links. I've never seen or heard of plastic clutch links. catskinner
i have plastic in my d8 1h and fiber in the other d8 1h, i think the plastic is better as it wont rot as fast as the fiber and the plastic were cheaper ,, just my 2 cents ,,
If a link has broken best to replace the whole lot and I dont think it is important which type you use.
More important to check the engine alignment to the transmission.

Totally agree, my 7M was badly out of alignment and was a real bearcat getting it right, but worth it.
