Description
When your modular Mustang is pushing serious power but you still need to drive it on the street, single-disc clutches simply can't deliver. The McLeod RXT1000 twin disc clutch kit solves this problem with a 1,000 hp capacity in a package that remains completely streetable - soft pedal effort, smooth engagement, and the ability to crawl through traffic without drama.
The engineering centers on twin ceramic friction discs with solid hubs that eliminate the marcel springs found in street-oriented clutches. This design maximizes power holding capacity while the ceramic facings provide aggressive grab characteristics under high heat and load. The diaphragm pressure plate delivers consistent clamping force and a lighter-than-stock pedal feel that makes this twin-disc setup surprisingly manageable for daily driving. McLeod's Blanchard-ground floater plate features multiple straps to reduce the chatter common in twin-disc setups, keeping the drivetrain quiet during normal driving.
McLeod's patent-pending gold metric adapter ring allows this clutch to bolt directly to your existing flywheel, eliminating the cost and hassle of a dedicated twin-disc flywheel. The CNC-machined aluminum ring fits 11" Borg & Beck metric pattern and 2001.5-2010 Mustang 6-bolt metric flywheels with dowel pins. Important note: your flywheel's crank relief must measure 6.250" or smaller for proper disc-to-flywheel contact - some factory flywheels have oversized reliefs that won't work.
This kit fits 1996-2017 Mustangs with modular 4.6L, 5.0L, and 5.4L V8 engines running a 10-spline transmission (T-45, TR-3650, or T-56). Works with both mechanical and hydraulic clutch release systems. All McLeod street performance clutches require a 500-750 mile break-in period of stop-and-go driving (1,200+ clutch actuations) before any wide-open throttle use or dyno tuning. Does not include pilot bearing or throwout bearing.
