SEMA 2012: McLeod RXT Modular Clutches Keep Installation Simple

[1]

If you have ever installed a clutch, you know how much of a pain it can be when it comes to properly aligning the discs. Additionally, if you buy most twin disc clutch kits, you have to purchase an expensive flywheel that is designed for the kit or setup for air gap. That us until Mcleod Racing [2] introduced the RXT modular twin disc clutch design.

With the ability to handle up to 1000hp, this twin disc clutch comes as you see it and ready to be bolted into your factory flywheel. “The RXT is a patent pending design,” says Mcleod’s Paul Lee. “The adapter ring allows you to bolt the RXT right to your factory flywheel.” Lee is not kidding either. In their booth was a late-model Mustang, Camaro, and Challenger clutch. You can take the RXT clutch assembly and move it from flywheel to flywheel, drastically reducing the amount of part numbers needed.
