Re: catastrophic clutch failure

Clutch designed for regular driving and power. If you don't want it to happen again, replace with an unsprung clutch.

Re: catastrophic clutch failure

its an oem clutch, not heavy duty. dont do burnouts with it and dont try to launch with it. its not designed for it and the spring busting out is a result of it.
