Default If you have had problems w/ Clutchmaster clutch post here!

I am on my second Clutchmaster stage 4 w/LWFW

1st clutch, after install would not shift past 6K RPM. No install error, and no reason from CM as to why.

2nd clutch worked fine for 3 months, then on higher RPM shifts the clutch pedal would not return to its position, failing pressure plate. No track usage no launches at all.

I know of 2 other people that have had similar issues, 1 person just recently had the exact same can't shift over 6K RPM issue.

I am trying to see if these are isolated incidents or if others have had similar experiences.

I did a call from CM about your kit, It looks like install issues or bad clutch fork

Default Install was fine and 2nd clutch worked perfect, but is now going out. I am working with CM to figure

this out. Another person in washington completely different shop having same exact issue as my first clutch.

Tranny is perfect, and clutch fork was inspected as fine.
