$483.63
Free Shipping

If you're looking to upgrade your Pontiac Firebird or TransAm from 1985 to 1992, the South Bend Clutch Stage 2 Daily Clutch Kit is a solid choice. This isn't just another part you slap on; it's a well-thought-out kit designed for those who want a little more from their ride without going overboard.

First off, let's talk about the quality. This kit is made by South Bend Clutch, a family-owned business with four generations of experience in the game. They know clutches inside and out, and it shows. You’re getting a clutch that meets or exceeds OEM specs but with a performance edge. It’s perfect for daily driving while still giving you that extra bite when you need it.

Now, what’s in the box? You’ll find a single clutch disc with a 260mm diameter made from organic material—ideal for a smooth engagement and decent wear resistance. The disc style is full face, so you get maximum contact for better power transfer. Plus, it comes with a pilot bushing made of steel, which is a nice touch for durability.

One thing to note: the kit does include an alignment tool and a throwout bearing, which is great since you won’t have to hunt those down separately. However, it doesn’t come with mounting hardware or a flywheel, so keep that in mind when you’re planning your install. The hub style is sprung, which helps with shock absorption during shifts, making your driving experience that much more enjoyable.

Speaking of fitment, this kit is specifically designed for the 5.0L engine in the Pontiac Firebird and TransAm from 1985 to 1992. If you’re running that setup, you’re in good shape. Just remember, it’s sold as a complete kit, so you’re all set to go once you have everything else you need for the installation.

In short, if you're ready to give your Firebird or TransAm a clutch that can handle the daily grind while still being fun to drive, the South Bend Clutch Stage 2 Daily Clutch Kit is worth considering. It's built to last and designed to perform, just like you expect from a classic ride.
