Detailed Description

The LuK LFW366 is a clutch flywheel designed for vehicles that require a precise mating surface between the engine and clutch assembly. Its OE-spec construction helps maintain proper clutch contact, while the new, non-remanufactured design eliminates the need to resurface an older flywheel when replacing the clutch. For Ford Escape, Mazda Tribute, and Ford Escort manual transmission repairs, the LFW366 offers a direct replacement built around factory-style dimensions and hardware locations.

This part cross-references ACI 88366 and AMS Automotive 167762 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Clutch chatter caused by an uneven flywheel surface
• Judder or vibration during clutch engagement
• Heat checking, scoring, or wear on the friction surface
• Incorrect clutch operation from an out-of-spec step height
• Repeat clutch service caused by reusing a worn flywheel

Installation Notes and Tips

Before installation, inspect the clutch, release components, and crankshaft sealing area for wear or contamination. Confirm flywheel diameter, tooth count, and step height match the original application before assembly. Proper torque procedures and a clean mating surface are important for reliable clutch operation on 2001-2004 Ford Escape, 2001-2004 Mazda Tribute, and 1998-2003 Ford Escort models.
