If you're looking to take your off-road adventures to the next level, the ACT Heavy Duty O/Race Rigid 4 Pad Kit T42-HDR4 is worth a serious look. This isn't just any clutch kit; it's built for those of us who push our vehicles to the limit. The heart of this setup is ACT's Heavy Duty pressure plate, which works in tandem with a rigid 4 pad race disc. What does that mean for you? Well, it’s all about high torque capacity and aggressive engagement. When you hit the gas, you want that power to transfer seamlessly to the wheels, and this kit delivers.

One of the standout features is ACT’s exclusive diaphragm design. It ramps up the clamp load, minimizes deflection, and helps extend the life of the clutch. Trust me, after a few hard runs, you’ll appreciate the durability that comes from their four-stage heat-treating process. It’s designed to handle the heat and stress of off-road racing like a champ. Plus, the precision pressure plate cover stampings give it that extra rigidity, ensuring consistent performance even when things get rough out there.

The rigid center of the 4 pad race discs is practically indestructible. Made with premium ceramic friction materials, it holds its own even under the harshest conditions. You’ll notice quicker shifts and a lighter feel on the pedal, which is a game changer when you're navigating tricky terrain. Just be aware that this setup might increase gear rattle a bit, but that’s the trade-off for the kind of performance you’re getting.

Now, if you're the DIY type, you’ll appreciate that the kit comes with an alignment tool and grease, though it doesn't include a clutch master cylinder or pressure plate bolts. Just make sure you have those on hand if you need them. And for those of you who are serious about racing, this kit is definitely recommended for race use only.

Here are some quick specs that might help you decide:

  • Clutch Disc Diameter: 8.8 in (224 mm)
  • Torque Capacity: 355 ft/lbs
  • Input Spline Quantity: 21
  • Input Shaft Diameter: 1.125 in
  • Weight: 13.4 lbs

This kit is compatible with the Toyota 4Runner (1990-1996) and Toyota Pickup (1989-1995). So if you’re ready to upgrade and really want to feel the difference on the trails, this ACT kit is a solid investment that can handle the heat and keep you moving forward.
