Description
G56 Transmissions in Dodges and Rams starting mid-2005 utilize a dual mass flywheel for driver comfort and longevity of drivetrain components. Great in theory, but despite the G56's robust appearance, the dual mass system doesn't hold up in severe duty situations, or higher power production and frankly, were known to be prone to failure. Especially with power numbers constantly growing, and 500-600 horsepower being common for daily driven trucks, to really benefit from the additional power, you need a drivetrain that will hold up under rough conditions. The 1200 Series Race dual plate system from Clutch Masters is the heavy hitter to get all your power to the ground (up to 2000-pound feet of it). But with clever construction and development, you still retain comfortable drivability. Clutch Masters through their experience in motorsport and clutch production, has paired a solid-hub clutch plate with a sprung-hub plate resulting in more manageable clutch engagement preventing a rough ride or potential damage to critical drivetrain components. With its construction and materials, expect up to 10% lower weight, adding in quieter operation. The 1200 Series Race kit is a larger diameter assembly, which is designed for high torque output applications. Mated to a billet steel flywheel you also allow yourself a modular system, so in the case of required repairs, you can piece together what you need, instead of having another large repair bill. IMPORTANT NOTE: This kit does not include aftermarket heavy duty, adjustable hydraulics. Per Clutch Masters, many of their clients do not require aftermarket hydraulics. They recommend installing the kit and driving your vehicle. If you feel at that point the hydraulics should be upgraded, do so.

FEATURES & BENEFITS:
  • Twin Disc (one sprung six puck ceramic disc and one six puck rigid ceramic disc)
  • Rated up to 2000 ft/lbs of torque
  • Aftermarket master / slave cylinder hydraulics are not necessary - because the entire assembly features the same overall depth as the factory clutch, you will not require adjustable hydraulics to change the throw
  • No "floater" plate - by utilizing a unique strapped midplate, Clutch Masters' dual discs do not rattle, which is common from most alternative dual discs on the market
  • Machined pressure plate - instead of using a stamped pressure plate, Clutch Masters machines their pressure plate from aluminum, which causes a 90% reduction in pressure plate flex, meaning you get consistent apply pressure
  • Positive release and minimal increase in pedal effort
  • Average weight of the entire assembly is 10% lighter than OEM to prevent excessive chatter and gear rattle.
KIT CONTENTS:
  • Aluminum Cover Assembly with attached Diaphragm
  • Pressure Plate Ring
  • Two Discs (Ceramic)
  • One Mid Plate
  • Billet Steel Flywheel
  • Release Bearing
  • Clutch Fork, pivot ball, and clip

About Clutch Masters
Driving should be an experience, not just a chore. The feeling that the perfect shift resonates in us followed by that pull into the seat just cant be matched. Ram, being the last stand out of the big three featuring manual transmissions in their diesels, started experiencing reliability issues with their dual mass flywheels that were paired with the G56s. That isnt an indicator that its time for an automatic, power numbers have grown immensely, and technology needed to catch up.
Clutch Masters, out of Rialto, California puts in the hard work of research and development to offer high performance clutches specifically to meet the needs of the modern ages continuously growing power levels. With their clutch foot planted in motorsports, they offer a variety of performance clutches supporting huge power builds, while maintaining drivability. Already well known for their 1200 Series twin disc systems for the G56, Clutch Masters also offer a variety of street ready replacements for all your manual equipped Rams. Thanks to their dedication to the ease of drivability, you dont have to be a power lifter to be able to drive to the grocery store with a clutch from the Clutch Masters.
