What is the benefit of a sprung clutch hub?

A sprung clutch hub has springs built into the disc that help absorb torsional vibrations and shock from the engine and drivetrain. This can lead to a smoother engagement feel when you shift gears and can reduce stress on other drivetrain components.

What else might I need when installing this clutch kit?

It's highly recommended to inspect your flywheel for wear and resurface or replace it if necessary during clutch installation. You may also need a new pilot bearing and rear main seal, depending on their condition.

Does this kit include a new flywheel?

This Clutch Masters FX350 clutch kit includes the clutch disc, pressure plate, and release bearing. A new flywheel is not included in this kit and should be purchased separately if needed.

About this part

Product Details

Clutch Masters is well-known for making strong clutch components for performance applications. This specific kit, the FX350, is built for your 1994-2004 Volkswagen Jetta, especially if you've got the 2.8L engine and a 5-speed transmission. It's designed to handle more power than the stock clutch, making it a solid choice if you're looking to upgrade your drivetrain's capability or replace a worn-out clutch with something more robust.

The FX350 kit features a sprung hub design, which helps absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with a performance clutch. This can lead to a smoother engagement feel compared to some other performance options. The clutch disc itself is built with materials that can handle increased torque and heat, which is important for spirited driving or if your Jetta sees track time. This kit includes the necessary components to get your clutch system updated, ensuring reliable power transfer.

When installing this kit, it's a good idea to inspect your flywheel for any signs of wear or damage, and resurfacing or replacing it is often recommended for optimal clutch performance and longevity. This kit is designed to be a direct replacement for your factory clutch, simplifying the installation process. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's specific installation instructions for best results.
