When it comes to enhancing the performance and durability of your diesel-powered vehicle, South Bend Clutch stands as a beacon of excellence in the clutch industry. The SBC SD2-1072-23 Clutch Kit embodies this reputation, offering a blend of superior quality, innovative technology, and unmatched performance. Designed specifically for diesel engines, this clutch kit is engineered to meet the demands of both daily driving and the rigors of high-performance applications.
South Bend Clutch, based in Indiana, has a long-standing tradition of creating products that push the boundaries of what is possible. Our clutch kits are no exception. The SBC SD2-1072-23 Clutch Kit features a unique combination of organic and feramic friction materials. This blend is the cornerstone of the kit's ability to provide smooth engagement and exceptional durability. The organic material offers a softer engagement for a more comfortable driving experience, while the feramic portion increases the clutch's resistance to heat and wear, making it ideal for vehicles that demand high performance.
The versatility of this clutch kit is showcased in its two variants: the Organic/Feramic Stage 2 Endurance option, which includes a flywheel, and the Organic Stage 2 Daily Plus option, which does not include a flywheel. Both variants are designed for vehicles equipped with a 6-speed transmission, supporting both the G56 and NV series, such as the NV4500 and NV5600. This makes the SBC SD2-1072-23 Clutch Kit a versatile solution for a wide range of diesel vehicles.
The inclusion of a sprung hub style in both variants ensures that the transmission shock is absorbed, providing a smoother transition and reducing the risk of component damage. This feature, coupled with the diaphragm pressure plate style that has been modified for enhanced performance, demonstrates South Bend Clutch's commitment to innovation and quality. The pressure plate's modification ensures a higher clamping force without compromising the pedal effort, offering an optimal balance between performance and drivability.
Each variant of the SBC SD2-1072-23 Clutch Kit comes equipped with a single disc, full-face design. This design choice is intentional, as it maximizes the contact area between the clutch disc and the flywheel/pressure plate, resulting in improved power handling and longevity. The full-face disc style is particularly beneficial in preventing hot spots and ensuring even wear, which is crucial for maintaining the clutch's performance over time.
Another notable feature of this clutch kit is the comprehensive inclusion of necessary components for a complete installation. Both variants include a throw-out bearing, alignment tool, and for the Endurance option, a pilot bushing made of durable steel. This attention to detail ensures that vehicle owners have everything they need for a hassle-free installation process, further enhancing the overall value of the kit.
