Clutch:
All of LC Engineering's clutch kits feature all new components with a single diaphragm heavy duty pressure plate. Don't be fooled by fancy spinning gizmos. A diaphragm clutch delivers full holding power at all engine rpm's. Our Pro Clutch Kit features a heavy-duty pressure plate combined with LC Engineering's custom disc with small particles of brass impregnated into it to provide tremendous heat resistance, holding power and smooth operation. The Pro Clutch Kit has over twice the holding power of a stock clutch with only a slightly stiffer pedal - excellent for use in 4WD with 31" or larger tires, or for vehicles with slight-to-moderate performance upgrades. Clutch kits come with the pressure plate, clutch disk, pilot bearing, throw out bearing, and a new alignment tool.
All LC Engineering's Clutch Kits are specifically designed for varying stages of high performance and/or racing uses. From the street performance enthusiast who requires more grab than a stock unit while retaining everyday drivability, to the racer who needs a clutch to survive under the grueling conditions of competition. Simply the best!

Flywheel:
If you circle track, drag race, or have a street car or truck with small tires, grab one of our lightweight aluminum flywheels and hang on! You will feel acceleration like you never thought possible, even with a stock engine. This lightweight flywheel does not affect the engine idle. It idles smooth and revs super fast - just the thing for light cars and 2WD trucks. Our lightweight flywheels have a replaceable steel wear pad for long life.
If your truck has big tires (32"+), LC Engineering has Hi-Torque flywheels to help overcome the performance loss. By increasing flywheel weight, the added inertia of the clutch/flywheel assembly keeps the engine up in it's powerband between shifts. This helps make your truck a real stump puller. Excellent for use with double or lower geared transfer cases. It's also great for towing and hauling heavy loads. CNC machined out of solid billet steel, with a steel flywheel ring gear welded on for maximum durability.
NOTE: Not compatible with TDI conversions.

Installation:
-
1. Always disconnect the negative battery cable prior to doing any major work on your vehicle.
2. When removing your old clutch, note which way the clutch disc was facing (spring pack facing engine or transmission). You will want to install the new disc with the same orientation as the old disc you removed.
3. Before installing your new clutch clean the inner bellhousing area to make sure no debris gets onto the new clutch. Also inspect clutch bar for any damage (cracks, excessive wear etc...).
4. Remove flywheel and either resurface or replace. The flywheel must have a fresh surface for the clutch disc to mate to! Failure to resurface the flywheel can result in shorter clutch life and abnormal wear or vibration. If the flywheel is discolored from excessive heat, you may need to replace it.
5. Install flywheel using a small amount of Loctite on the flywheel bolts. Torque the bolts in a star pattern. See the chart below for proper torque specs. 2RZ/3RZ flywheel bolts can not be re-used! These are a torque-to-yield bolt that are only intended to be torqued down once. New flywheel bolts are available from LC Engineering.
6. Install new pilot bearing in crankshaft. Failure to replace pilot bearing can result in annoying squeal noises when cold. We supply a new pilot bearing in all of our clutch kits.
7. Place clutch disc on flywheel, using the supplied alignment tool to make installation of the transmission easier. For all 20R, 22R, 22RE, 22RET, 2RZ, and 3RZ clutches, the spring side of the clutch disk faces the pressure plate/transmission. For 5VZ V6 clutches, the spring side faces the flywheel. If there is any confusion refer back to which way the stock disc was facing.
8. Install pressure plate onto flywheel, making sure to align the dowel pins in the flywheel with the corresponding holes in the pressure plate. Verify that the alignment tool keeps the clutch disk centered in the assembly (do not let the tool just hang on its own, you need to keep it centered as you install the pressure plate. Torque bolts evenly a little at a time in a star pattern. If the pressure plate is not torqued evenly in steps it can cause the plate to warp, this will not be covered under warranty. LC Engineering recommends tightening the pressure plate with hand tools only. Refer to chart below for torque specs. Remove alignment tool.
9. Replace throw-out bearing. The throw-out bearing is held in with two retaining clips that hold it to the clutch fork.
10. Lubricate all moving parts; input shaft, pressure plate "finger" tips, throw out bearing contact surfaces etc... with white lithium grease or Anti-sieze. This will ensure smooth performance and engagement of the clutch
11. With the new throw out bearing in place, slide the transmission onto the engine, being extremely careful not to let the weight of the transmission hang on the clutch disk. This can cause serious damage to the disk. With the clutch disk properly aligned during installation, the input shaft should not require any force to install. Rocking the transmission or turning the output shaft as you install the tranny may help if it doesn't go in all the way. DO NOT USE THE BELLHOUSING BOLTS TO DRAW THE TRANSMISSION AND ENGINE TOGETHER! This can result in serious damage, especially to the new clutch or the thrust bearings inside the engine, and should not be necessary if everything is installed and aligned properly.
12. Re-install slave cylinder and other components you may have removed to gain access to the clutch.
13. If needed, bleed clutch hydraulic system according to repair manual.
14. Road test vehicle, avoiding aggressive driving for the first 500-750 miles. Proper break-in procedure is crucial to long service life out of your new clutch.
NOTE: FAILURE TO FOLLOW PROPER INSTALLATION OR BREAK-IN PROCEDURES WILL VOID ANY WARRANTY

Great combo kit
This clutch/flywheel/hardware kit fixed all my clutch woes on my 22RE-powered Celica. I opted for the 16lb flywheel and the car accelerates noticeably quicker now, although I'm not sure if that's the new flywheel or finally replacing the original 33-year-old pressure plate. The clutch pedal feels much firmer than it was prior to the change, and I did stall it the first couple of times driving afterwards - this was presumably because a lighter flywheel makes it easier to stall. A couple days after that and I've figured it out. One thing of note, the kit came with a speedi-sleeve but with no installation tool. I happened to have a speedi-sleeve already (one that had an installation tool in it) so that part didn't slow me down - I just used the one I had that came with the tool.

Incredible complete kit!
I just received this kit and while I have not installed it yet, the quality of these components is impressive! The 30# flywheel is a work of art...

clutch flywheel kit PRO
Awesome kit. Has EVERYTHING I needed to include the throwout bearing for the tranny and the pilot bearing for the back of the engine. Even had extra maintenance parts and was packed very well. This kit is well worth the money IMO and I always come back to LCE for everything I need on my yota (85' 4runner).

cant wait
Looking forward to some good grip

Clutch kit
Comes with everything you need very well put together kit for the price personaly think the flywheels are a bit pricy since that is more than half the cost of the kit. Havnt installed yet but i know the flywheel will be worth its money. Plus big heavy duty springs on the clutch hate a soft mushy pedal

A must upgrade
The flywheel is an upgrade I would highly recommend. It performs just as advertised. My easy starting toyota starts even easier, the revs stay up when shifting and the truck has a heavier feel. My truck acts more like it should even with the larger tires. If you have oversized tires, you need this flywheel. Clutch seems nice too, expect to use a little more leg muscle but not super noticeable unless your standing on the clutch while waiting for a green light.

22R/RE/RTE Pro Clutch + Flywheel + Hardware + Seal
Looks to be a very nice set up and comes with all hardware. Like to see how this kit will perform with my setup.

One stop shop for a complete clutch kit package.
I checked out the "rockcrawler" company for comparison but LCE had everything in one kit @@ plus I liked that they knew to include the rear seal and repair sleeve. I always appreciate the LCE chat support to get quick answers to my questions - props to chat support peeps! Only negative comment is that I would of preferred to be notified that the Flywheel was not available and on a 2+ week wait for production - instead of having to check on it myself. Overall completely satisfied with this purchase and all my previous purchases over the years. If you want to see pictures and commentary on this install please check out my upcoming blog update on this install at www.projectra21.blogspot.com - there is more posts of other LCE products I have blogged about I used on my 1987 Hilux and the RA21 Celica project I am currently working on. - Enjoy!
