What Is a Transmission Clutch Kit?
A transmission clutch kit consists primarily of a clutch friction disc and a clutch pressure plate. These components work together to transfer engine torque from the flywheel to the transmission. While different clutch designs exist, all serve the same essential purpose of engaging and disengaging power delivery.
Clutches are wear items, and it is strongly recommended to replace the clutch disc and pressure plate together. During clutch service, additional components such as the pilot bearing, release bearing, rear main seal, and related hardware should also be inspected or replaced as needed.
