    Description

    The McLeod RXT1200 twin disc clutch kit solves the age-old problem of high-capacity clutches that punish your left leg in traffic. Rated for 1200 crank horsepower, this kit delivers serious holding power while maintaining a pedal feel that customers often mistake for stock - it is designed that way. The secret lies in the 9.687-inch disc diameter, which requires less diaphragm pressure than larger-diameter designs while compensating with higher clamp load than standard RXT twin disc clutch kits.

    The twin ceramic friction discs provide smooth engagement characteristics suited to aggressive street driving and strip use. The sprung hub design dampens driveline vibrations and delivers less aggressive engagement than solid hub setups, making this clutch ideal for drivers who want serious holding power without sacrificing daily driveability. You can drive to the track, rip off quarter-mile passes, and drive home without your clutch leg cramping up.

    This complete kit is engineered for 2009-2013 6.2L GM LS engines with 9-bolt cranks in retrofit applications. The included billet steel flywheel features a 168-tooth ring gear and eliminates the guesswork of matching components. McLeod's patent-pending adapter ring technology allows the clutch to bolt directly to the included flywheel without custom machining. Proper break-in requires 500-750 miles of stop-and-go city driving to actuate the clutch 1200-1500 times before any drag racing or dyno tuning.

    This kit requires hydraulic clutch actuation. For vehicles with factory flywheels, note that the flat-style flywheel included eliminates concerns about crank relief compatibility - factory LS3 and LS7 recessed flywheels will not work with this clutch, but the included dedicated flywheel solves that issue entirely. Made in the USA.

    Kit Includes

    • Diaphragm pressure plate with increased clamp load
    • Two ceramic friction discs with sprung hubs (9.687-inch diameter, 1-1/8 x 26 spline)

    • Billet steel flywheel with 168-tooth ring gear
    • McLeod patent-pending adapter ring
    • Pilot alignment tool
    • Installation instructions
    • Flywheel clutch pattern chart

    Note: This kit does not include a pilot bearing or throwout bearing.

    FAQs

    Q. What are MUST'S' when changing my clutch? A. 1. Change the pilot bearing. 2. Break the clutch in according to the instructions provided. 3. Ensure proper bellhousing alignment. 4. Resurface the flywheel. This is a critical step to guard against clutch chatter/shudder. We recommend a very coarse surface texture from a stone grinder. Something that if you ran your fingernail across the flywheel, the texture would catch your nail. 5. Inspect the entire clutch system, including hydraulics and linkage. Replacement of the Hydraulic slave with an OEM replacement is critical. Q. Do I have to use alignment pins in the flywheel? A. Yes. The pins help to ensure proper alignment of the pressure plate and add strength. Q. What is the proper break-in period? A. We would like to see 500-750 miles of stop-and-go city driving. Absolutely no drag racing or dyno tuning. Make sure to drive in stop-and-go city driving to actuate the clutch 1200 to 1500 times. You can drive the car 600 miles on the interstate and only shift the car 5 or 6 times and fail to break-in the clutch. Q. What causes clutch chatter? A. 1. Oil or grease on the clutch facings. 2. Worn or damaged clutch linkage, leaf springs, bushings, mounts, u-joints, CV joints, engine mounts, transmission mounts. 3. A flywheel that has not been resurfaced properly, has hot spots, has excessive run-out and or incorrect flywheel step. 4. Pressure plate or disc that is bent. 5. Defective pressure plate and or disc. 6. An engine that is not tuned properly. 7. A disc that either lacks enough marcel or has no marcel at all.
