Cummins-equipped Rams are easily upgraded and can make big power. Don’t let your clutch slow you down. Centerforce has been working hard to help you out, and now it’s here: a 1,700 pound-feet rated twin clutch putting the power to the ground! Details are below.

Official Release:

The Cummins ISB straight-6 diesel engines are legendary for their reliability, tunability, and overall power potential. In recent years, this workhorse has been boosted from nearly 600 foot-pounds of torque to over 850 foot-pounds of torque. Simple tunes can net increases of over 250 foot-pounds of torque. With increased power levels, the stock clutch quickly becomes inadequate for even basic driving, leading many enthusiasts to install an aftermarket clutch system — which historically results in drivability compromises. Centerforce developed the Diesel Twin clutch kit to eliminate common compromises such as stiff pedal feel, rough engagement and annoying noise.

The Centerforce Diesel Twin uses two sprung hub discs with a patented floater design that uses spring-loaded bushings to absorb typical “floater rattle.” The floater is drilled and slotted like a brake rotor to dissipate heat. This configuration helps to retain stock-like drivability.

Smooth engagement comes from the two-stage sprung hub friction discs, which were developed specifi-cally for the Cummins application. The primary springs help dampen engine vibration and transmission gear rattle, then the secondary springs absorb the shock and harmonics when the clutch is engaged. Centerforce’s patented ball-bearing pressure plate and centrifugal weights add the clamping force, giving the Diesel Twin a rated 1,700 lb-ft holding capacity. Because diesels turn lower rpm than gas en-gines, Centerforce re-engineered the signature centrifugal weights to provide more force at the lower-rpm. Further, the pressure plate’s diaphragm fingers are adjusted properly at the factory — no need to align or adjust them with a prybar during installation. Centerforce’s new Diesel Twin kit (Part No. 04026651) is for 2005.5-2013 Cummins-powered Rams with the G56 6-speed manual transmission.
