Exedy OE Replacement Clutch Kits:

CLUTCH COVER ASSEMBLIES in Exedy clutch kits are manufactured on the same production line that the OEM products are made on. All cover assemblies made have been robotically tested for clamp load and clutch lift separation to ensure optimal pedal feel for engagement and disengagement. The diaphragm spring has been hardened to reduce clutch thrust bearing wear on the contact surface. All this will deliver a new car pedal feel.

CLUTCH DISCS which are manufactured to OEM Daikin/Exedy standards renowned worldwide for extensive durability and wear. Advanced engineering features such as ‘WAD’ Wide Angle Dampers, and ‘LTD’ Long Travel Dampers that are patented worldwide to suppress noise and vibration issues. These patented functions are not available from any other manufacturer worldwide. These patented functions along with the Exedy renowned UF 71 and UF 91 clutch friction material make one of the best OEM replacement clutch disc in the market.

CLUTCH THRUST RELEASE BEARINGS in Exedy clutch kits are of highest quality sourced from the best manufacturers in the world. Every clutch thrust bearing has been tested for durability to obtain maximum life. A continuous running test with load on the bearing is carried out for over 200 hours running time. Exedy Globalparts guarantees all clutch thrust bearings in clutch kits marketed in the United States.

CONCENTRIC THRUST BEARING SLAVE CYLINDERS (when applicable) in Exedy clutch kits are of highest OEM replacement standards, we have an association with FTE™, who is the major supplier of CSCs, to vehicle manufacturers around the world.

Why Self-Adjusting Clutches Are A Better Value

Overtime, the material on the friction disc wears, causing the pressure plate to move closer to the flywheel. Eventually without adjustment, there will be permanent contact to the clutch, causing the clutch to fail.

Non-self Adjusting Clutches must be routinely adjusted manually to the proper height to keep space between the flywheel & pressure plate when the pedal is pressed.

Self-Adjusting Clutches automatically adjust as the friction material wears, keeping the proper spacing and pressure through out the life of the clutch and eliminating excessive load on the release bearing.

While Self-Adjusting Clutches are typically more expensive up front, they can save you money over the life of your clutch.

Organic vs. Kevlar vs. Ceramic Friction Disc - What Is The Difference?

The Friction Disc is a vital part of any clutch. It connects the pressure plate and flywheel, and is responsible for transferring engine power to the rest of the vehicle. Clutch Kits come with several different types of friction discs, and it is important to understand the pros and cons of each material:

Tips & Tools For The Job

• Wear a Dust Mask to protect against hazardous clutch dust. You can also spray the clutch with water prior to removal to reduce the amount of airborne dust during disassembly.
• Use a Flywheel Turner to hold the flywheel in place while removing and reinstalling the pressure plate bolts.
• Apply Blue Threadlocker to flywheel bolts prior to installation to prevent backing out due to the high vibrations flywheels are subject to.
• Use the provided lubricant to lightly lubricate the splines of the input shaft. Over lubricating the input shaft risks lubricant transfer to the clutch friction disc and can cause clutch slippage.
• Be sure to install the new clutch friction disc in the correct direction. The disc will have a "Flywheel Side" label on one side.
