DOES CENTERFORCE REQUIRE THE FLYWHEEL TO BE RESURFACED BEFORE INSTALLING A NEW CLUTCH?
Yes! Flywheels Are Subject To Heat, Scoring And Warping During Use, Therefore The Flywheel Should Always Be Properly Resurfaced Or Replaced To Assure Good Clutch Performance. Resurfacing Must Be Performed On A Qualified Flywheel Grinding Machine. Centerforce Does Not Recommend Resurfacing Flywheels On A Lathe Or A Blanchard Grinder. Also, Be Aware That Using A Hand-Held Electric Or Pneumatic Grinder/Sander Or Scuffing The Surface With Sandpaper Does Not Constitute A Properly Resurfaced Flywheel. Refer To Your Factory Service Manual For Specifics On Your Vehicle Regarding Flywheel Resurfacing And Specifications (Flat, Step, Etc.).Some Vehicles Require New Replacement Flywheels Instead Of Resurfacing. Please Consult The Factory Service Manual Or Call Our Tech.
