Description
This kit is for cars with a flat flywheel. Cars that were built at the factory with an intercooler kit normally used a stepped flywheel and pressure plate. This kit will not fit cars with the factory install intercooler package. Many intercoolers were installed aftermarket and will still use a flat flywheel.
When you are replacing your clutch, you should inspect and/or replace the following:
- U-joints for smooth and tight operation,
- Check the center driveline support and transmission mount for cracks or breaks in the rubber and, if oil soaked, replace.
- Replace the pilot bearing and rear main seal and have the flywheel inspected for stress cracks and resurfaced.
- Check transmission gaskets and seals (pinion seal too), and the condition of the wiring harness and switch functions.
- Inspect clutch fork for cracks.
- Don't forget to order a clutch alignment tool and remember that the drivelines are balanced and must go back together at the splined area in the same orientation as they were removed to prevent vibrations (always mark them for alignment before separating them).
Potential Product Fitment Issues
This kit fits models that were NOT fitted with an intercooler from the factory. Volvo equipped 240 turbo models with an intercooler from the factory starting midyear 1984. This kit will NOT fit these late model 240 turbos with factory installed intercooler.
