Installation Notes and Tips

Verify clutch diameter, spline count, and input shaft diameter before installation. This kit is listed for applications using a push type diaphragm pressure plate and an 11-inch clutch flywheel configuration. Some 1986-1987 Dodge applications note special bleeding procedures for slave cylinders without bleed screws; refer to LB190 where specified in the fitment notes. Confirm the transmission and flywheel setup on Dodge D150, Ramcharger, and related models before assembly.
