What is the advantage of a sprung ceramic clutch disc?

A sprung ceramic clutch disc offers a good balance between aggressive engagement and the ability to absorb drivetrain shock. The ceramic material provides excellent heat resistance, while the springs help to dampen vibrations, making it suitable for heavy-duty trucks.

Does this kit include everything needed for a clutch replacement?

This kit includes the clutch disc, pressure plate, and a flywheel. While it covers the core clutch components, it's always recommended to inspect and potentially replace related items like the pilot bearing and release bearing during installation.

What is the typical lifespan of this type of clutch kit?

The lifespan of any clutch kit depends heavily on driving habits and vehicle use. However, the FXT400 series is designed for heavy-duty applications, and the ceramic friction material offers good wear characteristics for improved longevity under demanding conditions.

About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to replace the clutch in your 1994-2004 Dodge Ram 2500 or 3500 equipped with the 5.9L Cummins engine and the NV4500 manual transmission, this Clutch Masters FXT400 Sprung Ceramic Clutch Kit is a solid option. This kit is designed to handle the demands of a heavy-duty truck, offering improved engagement and durability over stock components. The sprung ceramic friction disc is a key feature, providing a balance between aggressive engagement and the ability to absorb shock, which is crucial for a truck like yours.

The FXT400 series from Clutch Masters is known for its robust construction. This kit includes a sprung ceramic friction disc, which helps to dampen drivetrain shock and vibration, making for a smoother driving experience, especially under load. The ceramic material offers excellent heat resistance and wear characteristics, meaning it can handle frequent engagement and heavier duty cycles without premature failure. The kit also comes with a flywheel, ensuring you have all the necessary components for a complete clutch replacement. This is important because a worn flywheel can negatively impact the performance and lifespan of a new clutch.

When undertaking a clutch replacement, it's always recommended to inspect other drivetrain components, such as the rear main seal and transmission input shaft seal, while the transmission is out. This kit is designed as a direct replacement for your factory clutch, simplifying the installation process. Clutch Masters is a well-known name in the performance clutch market, and this kit reflects their commitment to providing reliable parts for demanding applications.
