CENTERFORCE CLUTCH SUPPORTS 1962-1995 CHEVY/GMC TRUCKS  

Classic GMC/Chevrolet pickups, vans, and SUVs are some of the most venerable workhorses ever built. Millions of these sturdy rigs were manufactured between 1962-1995, and many still remain in service. These older trucks have always been great platforms for both business and pleasure. With the limitless possibilities for upgrading stout GM powerplants, their stock clutches (probably tired already) quickly run out of talent. Centerforce now has a premium street/track/trail solution in kit form: The Centerforce Dual Friction System.

The Centerforce Dual Friction clutch kit comes with all the components required to improve clamping power in older Chevys/GMCs. In addition to installation instructions, the box includes a pressure plate, a Dual Friction clutch disc, a new throwout bearing, a new pilot bearing, pressure plate bolts, and a clutch alignment tool. The Dual Friction system also utilizes Centerforce’s patented technologies. First and foremost are the famous Centerforce counterweights, which increase pressure plate clamp load with RPM. The patented ball-bearing pressure plate system further increases gripping power while keeping pedal effort low.

This new Centerforce Dual Friction kit for classic Chevys/GMCs features a 12-in OD pressure plate and 1-1/8-in, 10-spline disc. It fits many Chevy/GMC six- and eight-cylinder applications in 1962-95 pickups, vans, and SUVs. The pressure plate and clutch disc are also available individually.
