When a new clutch kit is installed, the flywheel must be either replaced or ground. This is because excessive heat from normal driving changes the structure of your flywheel surface which creates less friction affecting the performance of your clutch. Not all grinds are the same so if you do decide to grind instead of replacing use an experienced flywheel grinder to make sure you don’t run into issues later.
If this is not done or not done correctly common issues experienced are shudder or slipping. Another issue that can arise from repeated flywheel grinds is disengagement problems experienced after installing the new clutch, this is due to having a lowered stack height. A way to overcome this which also solves the poor grind problem is replacing the flywheel with a new part instead of grinding. A further advantage is the hoist time saved which is otherwise wasted waiting for the flywheel grind.
Clutch Industries now offers a wide range of OEM spec replacement flywheels at a price that is comparable to a grind.
