Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
A traditional single disc clutch needs to be physically larger to achieve the required mean effective radius to hold enough torque for a particular vehicle, whereas a twin disc clutch can spread the torque over the two clutch discs. This can allow it to have a smaller diameter while still meeting or exceeding the torque required for that vehicle application.
There are four versions of the UniClutch. UniClutch, UniClutch Sport, UniClutch Track and UniClutch 4Terrain. Depending on your exact vehicle and usage requirements, one of these 4 will be best suited to your needs. If you need help with the best option for your application, contact your local Repco store to discuss what best suits your specific needs.
While the UniClutch replaces OE clutches, it will not feel exactly like an OE clutch. Most aftermarket twin disc clutches on the market will offer more compromises to the drivability and NVH (driveline vibration and noise) comparable to the OE clutch. The UniClutch will provide all the benefits of a twin disc clutch with fewer compromises. In a small percentage of UniClutch applications, there may be a compromise with increased pedal effort or levels of shudder compared to the OE clutch it is replacing.
UniClutch has been designed to feel like an OE clutch or lighter in most applications. When searching for your specific vehicle in the UniClutch catalog, it will give you an indication of the expected pedal effort after the UniClutch is installed.
In most instances, the release point will be like OEM. When searching for your specific vehicle in the UniClutch catalog, it will give you an indication of the potential clutch release point.
No flywheel machining is required as the UniClutch does not utilize the flywheel as a friction surface like a traditional clutch. As the UniClutch is totally sealed, the flywheel is only used as a bolt face so that the UniClutch can transmit the power from the engine to the gearbox. It is recommended that an installer carefully inspects the current flywheel to ensure it has no major defects that would prevent it from being reused when installing the UniClutch.
It is good practice with any clutch replacement to look over the reason why the original clutch needed to be replaced and ensure that any components that could have caused an issue are reviewed. Look over the hydraulic system (master cylinder, slave cylinder or clutch dampener etc.) and any other components in the clutch system (fork, pivot ball etc.) to ensure they are in working and reusable condition. If there is any doubt about the condition of these components, it is recommended that they are replaced.
You can purchase any of the parts in the UniClutch Fitment Kit as individual spare parts. However, you cannot purchase any components in the assembled sealed UniClutch unit. You can contact your local Repco store for assistance with purchasing available spare parts.
You can purchase a new UniClutch Sport, Track or 4Terrain and reuse your existing Fitment Kit. The Fitment Kit components installed on the flywheel must be reviewed before installing the new UniClutch. If there is any doubt about the condition of those components, it is better to replace them with a new Fitment Kit.
