Re: Spec Aftermarket Clutch
]Sweet. Nice to have an option. Is it alot more than the stock one?
How is the SPEC one better? Can you explain.
IMHO - since the stock had a burning smell when under extreme load I knew that after adding a S/C and lower gears that a aftermarket clutch and pressure plate would be needed (IMHO)
So since the TRD S/C has not hit the streets I figured might as well get a new clutch installed to kill time, I also wasn't sure since this was the first one and I was ready to try different stages if needed.
Drastically different materials and lots of increase pressure from the pressure plate, but still offers daily driving feel.
This is taken directly from the marlin crawler page
When organic clutches heat up they quickly loose the ability to absorb heat. At that time, the fabric on the clutch begins to be polished and its frictional coefficient is reduced. Ceramic clutches have a higher heat tolerance and actually increase friction as they warm up. Ceramic clutches last longer and will outlive organic clutches. Since these disks are "pucked", they have a lower mass and have the potential to spin at much faster RPMs with out disintegrating.
I did not go with a ceramic clutch as the full carbon semi metalic seems to have a better track record and a much longer lifespan.
