What is the main benefit of a Stage 5 clutch kit?

A Stage 5 clutch kit, like this SPEC SM505, is designed to handle significantly more torque and horsepower than a stock clutch. The multi-plate design helps distribute heat and load, making it ideal for vehicles used for towing, racing, or heavy off-roading where the clutch is subjected to extreme stress.

Does this clutch kit include everything needed for installation?

This SPEC Stage 5 clutch kit includes the multi-plate clutch discs, a heavy-duty pressure plate, and a billet steel flywheel. It is a comprehensive package for the clutch upgrade, but it's always best to consult the manufacturer's installation guide for any additional recommended hardware or break-in procedures.

Will this clutch kit affect the pedal feel in my Montero?

Yes, performance clutch kits like this Stage 5 upgrade typically require a firmer pedal feel compared to a stock clutch. This is due to the increased clamping force needed to manage higher torque levels. The sprung hub design helps to mitigate some of the harshness, but a firmer pedal is generally expected.

About this part

Product Details

If you're pushing your 1989-1999 Mitsubishi Montero hard, whether it's off-road, towing, or just spirited driving, the stock clutch might be starting to slip or feel overwhelmed. This SPEC Stage 5 clutch kit is built to handle significantly more power and torque than the original, giving you the confidence to put your Montero's engine to work. It's designed for drivers who need a clutch that can keep up with their vehicle's capabilities and won't let them down when the going gets tough.

SPEC has engineered this Stage 5 kit with a high-performance sprung multi-plate design. This setup uses two friction discs, which helps to distribute the load and heat more effectively, allowing it to hold a substantial amount of extra torque. The sprung hub design is crucial for absorbing driveline shock, which is important for maintaining drivability and protecting other drivetrain components, especially in a vehicle like the Montero. This kit includes a billet steel flywheel, which is a strong and durable component that ensures a solid mounting surface for the clutch assembly and helps with heat dissipation. It also comes with a heavy-duty pressure plate and the necessary multi-plate clutch discs.

When installing this clutch kit, it's important to note that it's a significant upgrade over stock and may require a firmer pedal feel. Because it's designed for higher torque capacity, it's recommended to have a professional mechanic perform the installation to ensure everything is set up correctly. This kit is a complete package, meaning it includes the critical components needed for the upgrade, but always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details and any additional hardware or break-in procedures recommended by SPEC.
