Application Details

Sachs K70185-01 is a transmission clutch kit for vehicles that use the listed clutch and flywheel dimensions. For 1997-2004 Chevrolet Corvette applications, the notes specify that the slave cylinder includes the bearing, but that bearing is not included in this clutch kit. The same fitment structure applies to 1998-2002 Chevrolet Camaro, 1998-2002 Pontiac Firebird, and 2004 Pontiac GTO applications.

Common Reasons For Replacement

• Clutch slip during acceleration
• Hard or inconsistent gear engagement
• Shudder or chatter on takeoff
• Worn friction surfaces in manual transmission service
• Flywheel service during clutch replacement

Installation Notes

Verify the vehicle’s transmission specifications, spline count, and clutch diameter before installation. Match the application notes carefully, especially for Corvette models where the slave cylinder bearing is referenced separately. Confirm flywheel condition and inspect related hydraulic components during service.
