What is the main benefit of the FX400 clutch kit over a stock clutch?

The FX400 series clutch is engineered to hold more torque than your original clutch. This makes it a better option if your Jetta has performance modifications or if you frequently engage in aggressive driving.

Does this clutch kit include a flywheel?

Yes, this kit comes with a steel flywheel. Steel flywheels are well-known for their strength and durability, providing a solid surface for the clutch disc to engage with.

What other parts should I consider replacing when installing a new clutch kit?

It's often recommended to inspect and potentially replace the clutch fork and release bearing while the transmission is out for a clutch job. These are wear items that are easily accessible during the installation process.

About this part

Product Details

This is the Clutch Masters FX400 clutch kit specifically for your 2002-2004 Volkswagen Jetta with the 2.8L 24v engine and a 6-speed manual transmission. If you're looking to handle more power or simply want a more robust clutch for spirited driving, this kit is a solid choice. It's designed to be a direct replacement for your stock clutch, but with significantly improved performance characteristics.

The FX400 series clutch from Clutch Masters is known for its ability to hold more torque than a stock clutch, making it suitable for modified vehicles or those that see frequent hard use. This particular kit includes a sprung hub clutch disc with a lining that offers excellent friction and durability. It also comes with a steel flywheel, which is a strong and reliable option that mates well with the clutch disc. The steel flywheel is a popular choice because it's less prone to cracking than some lighter materials under high stress.

When installing this kit, you'll want to ensure your flywheel surface is clean and free of any oil or grease. It's also a good idea to inspect your clutch fork and release bearing for wear, as these components are easily accessible during a clutch job and replacing them at the same time can save you headaches down the road. This kit is designed to provide a noticeable difference in engagement feel and holding capacity compared to your original clutch.
