Clutch Masters 94-04 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 5.9L 5spd FX1200 Street Twin Disc Clutch w/ Steel Flywheel

If you're pushing your 1994-2004 Dodge Ram 2500 or 3500 with the 5.9L Cummins engine and a 5-speed manual transmission beyond its original clutch's limits, you're likely looking for a serious upgrade. This Clutch Masters FX1200 Street Twin Disc Clutch kit is built to handle significantly more torque than a stock clutch, making it a popular choice for trucks that see heavy towing, frequent hauling, or modified engines.

The FX1200 series clutch uses a twin-disc design, which means it has two friction surfaces for each side of the flywheel. This larger surface area allows it to dissipate heat more effectively and handle much higher torque loads without slipping. Clutch Masters uses their own well-known sprung hub discs, which help absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with a high-performance clutch, contributing to a more comfortable driving experience on the street. The kit includes a solid steel flywheel, which is a robust choice for heavy-duty applications and ensures a strong connection between the engine and drivetrain. This setup is designed to provide a firm engagement while still being manageable for daily driving, offering a notable improvement in clutch capacity and durability for your truck.

When installing a twin-disc clutch like this, it's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, as the setup can be more involved than a single-disc clutch. Ensure you have the correct alignment tools and consider replacing your rear main seal and pilot bearing while the transmission is out. This kit is a substantial upgrade for your Ram's drivetrain, built to withstand the demands of a powerful diesel engine.
