Frequently Asked Questions
What makes this 6L80 transmission clutch kit more reliable than stock clutches?
This heavy-duty 6L80 clutch kit includes upgraded friction components manufactured with G3® material, providing 50% more clutch apply area and enhanced torque and heat capacity. The superior materials and design significantly reduce clutch plate failure under high-stress conditions.
How does the Hi-Per Blue® piston kit improve transmission performance?
The Hi-Per Blue® piston kit uses advanced AEM material that withstands extreme temperatures and chemical exposure. Its improved fit ensures more consistent clutch engagement and better overall transmission performance in demanding applications.
What is the benefit of the Lindered heat treatment on the steel plates?
Lindered is a specialized chemical and heat treatment process that increases steel hardness, reducing wear and boosting high temperature durability. This treatment makes the clutch plates more resistant to failure and better suited for heavy-duty or performance driving.
Can this clutch kit withstand high torque and heat in racing or towing conditions?
Yes. Designed for applications where high torque and heat are a factor—like racing, towing, or off-roading—this clutch kit features superior materials and engineering to withstand high stress and deliver consistent performance without clutch failure.
Why is CDT’s billet 4-5-6 clutch hub and intermediate shaft required with this kit?
The CDT billet hub and shaft (part number 104680-45-P) are specially designed to support the increased demands of this upgraded clutch pack. They help optimize oil flow and eliminate common failure points found in OE designs, ensuring full compatibility and reliability.
