Clutch Masters 96-01 Audi A4 2.8L B5 FX250 Heavy Duty Sprung Clutch Kit w/ Steel Flywheel

Clutch Masters is well-known for making robust drivetrain components, and this FX250 Heavy Duty Sprung Clutch Kit with a steel flywheel is a prime example of their work. If you're looking to upgrade the clutch system in your 1996-2001 Audi A4, 1995-2001 Audi A6, or 1998-2005 Volkswagen Passat, this kit is built to handle more power and provide a solid connection between your engine and transmission. It’s designed for drivers who need a clutch that can keep up with their demands, whether that’s spirited driving or hauling heavier loads.

This FX250 kit features a sprung hub design, which helps to absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with a more aggressive clutch. This makes it a bit more comfortable for daily driving compared to a solid hub setup, while still offering a strong engagement. The kit includes a performance pressure plate, a sprung clutch disc made with a high-performance friction material, and a durable steel flywheel. The steel flywheel is a good choice for a balance of performance and longevity, offering a solid surface for the clutch disc to engage with and dissipating heat effectively. Everything you need for a comprehensive clutch replacement is included in this package, making it a straightforward upgrade for your vehicle’s drivetrain.

When installing a heavy-duty clutch like this, it's always a good idea to inspect your existing components, such as the pilot bearing and rear main seal, and replace them if they show any signs of wear. This ensures that your new clutch system operates at its best and prevents potential issues down the road. This kit is a significant upgrade for vehicles that see a lot of use or have had their power output increased.
