If you're looking to upgrade your clutch game, you've come to the right place. Our South Bend Clutch kits are designed for those who want performance without sacrificing reliability. Whether you're tearing up the track or just want a smoother ride in your daily driver, we’ve got you covered. We’ve been in the clutch game for four generations, so we know a thing or two about what works and what doesn’t.

Let’s get into the nitty-gritty. This kit is tailored specifically for the 2004 BMW 525 with a 2.5L engine (E60). It’s a single-disc setup with a robust 230mm diameter, made from durable ceramic material. The full-face design means you get solid engagement and longevity, which is crucial if you’re pushing your car to its limits.

One of the standout features is the sprung hub style, which helps with shock absorption and makes for a smoother operation. The input shaft diameter is 1.16 inches with 22 splines, so it fits right into your setup without any fuss. Plus, we include an alignment tool to make installation a breeze—no special tools needed!

Now, if you’re thinking about the pressure plate, it’s a diaphragm style, which means you’ll have a nice balance between pedal feel and holding power. This clutch is designed for performance usage, so it’s perfect for spirited drives or even some light track days. Just a heads up, this kit doesn’t come with a flywheel or mounting hardware, so make sure you’ve got those sorted out before diving in.

Oh, and we can’t forget the throwout bearing—it’s included and styled for standard use, so you won't be left scrambling for parts mid-install. We pride ourselves on top-notch service, and our inventory is set up to get you what you need, fast.

In short, if you’re ready to take your BMW 525 to the next level, this South Bend Clutch kit is a solid choice. It’s built to last, easy to install, and delivers the performance you need. Let's get that clutch feeling right!
