Clutch options

Just get a new 1650 torque eaton easy pedal. Can't go wrong .

 

Have you checked the linkage for play?
Had a Freightliner with a worn out bushing,it would get to a certain point,then move 1/2" on its own.

 

It's probley got a ceramic clutch .
There terrible to drive. No slip at all .
Had a 2000 kw came that way from new.
Replaced it after one week of driving it with a genuine eaton easy pedal. That was 13 years ago and it's still going strong

 

clutch in my Mack is like that as well. i don't like it, i also think my throwout rod bushings are shot too, i am actually thinking that is a big part of it. when i got the truck it didn't have grease zerks in them and didn't look like they had for a long time. is slightly better with grease zerks and frequent greasing. but pedal is not smooth at all and the clutch is like a on off switch.

ill probably put a easy pedal in it at some point.

 

Depending on how old the clutch is it could have non dampened disc, these lack the springs in the disc that allow them to flex on engagement.

Are you sure what size clutch the truck has in it?

 

All my new Eaton clutches have been ceramic, they only still offer the organic material for the really low torque apps.

 

Well what ever the new ones are they work alot better then the old type.
