An upgrade shouldn’t just be an afterthought in the face of a bad or worn clutch. Switching your OE clutch for a heavy-duty alternative now makes perfect sense for so many reasons, especially when choosing our Xtreme Outback Kits as your clutch upgrade.
Here at 4×4 Works, we provide all the mechanical upgrades you need to finetune the performance of your 4WD vehicle, including premium clutch kits. In this blog post, we delve deeper into the benefits of clutch upgrades so you can decide whether this should be your next investment.
Discover more options for replacement flywheels
Having a number of replacement flywheel options to choose from is certainly a perk when upgrading with an Xtreme Outback Clutch Kit.
As well as being vehicle-specific – you’ll find kits for every vehicle, including the Mitsubishi L200 B40 Series 4 and the Toyota Hilux Series 7 – other options, such as ceramic kits and flywheel upgrades, are available. Here FastCar details when a ceramic clutch kit is the best option:
“Offering the highest friction coefficient, the ceramic material itself provides more grip – which often means you don’t need such a high clamping force. The flip side is that ceramic materials wear the flywheel surface, sometimes causing shudder and a harsher feel. Mainly for competition use and applications where you are significantly increasing the stock power output.”
Enjoy improved durability and a longer life
OE clutches are particularly prone to slipping, overheating and premature failure. They’re simply not made for off-road or heavy-duty use. With this in mind, a higher quality, performance clutch upgrade provides the ideal solution.
With highly durable components, you can better prepare your vehicle for off-roading and heavy use, even in the most rugged settings. The result? A hard-wearing clutch that offers reliability, robustness and fantastic performance for the long term.
Experience better torque transfer
Upgrading with an Xtreme Outback Organic Clutch Kit isn’t just great for travelling off the beaten track. Its ability to handle higher torque will ensure the enhanced torque transfer that makes towing or heavy use a breeze.
You’ll also enjoy increased clamping pressure of up to 40% when compared with an OE or OE equivalent clutch to ensure heavy loads can be carried with ease, all while retaining near factory-type drivability.
Relish simple and straightforward installation
Our Xtreme Outback Heavy Duty Organic Clutch Kit provides everything required to directly replace your existing clutch, meaning you can enjoy all the benefits of a clutch upgrade. Installation is also simple and straightforward.
