FLYWHEEL SHIM

Servicing or installing a flywheel or flexplate on a General Motors LS engine with a manual or automatic transmission, Ensure a truly professional repair by replacing all the worn or broken factory bolts with this convenient package of six direct-replacement 11mm x 1.5 mounting bolts. Coated with clear zinc for corrosion resistance, with thread locker already applied, they’re precision-manufactured from strong steel for long service life.

Product Features:

• Direct replacement – these six 11mm x 1.5 flywheel bolts match the fit, function and performance of the factory fasteners
• Convenient package – package contains six bolts, the exact quantity needed for a complete repair
• Durable construction – coated with clear zinc for corrosion resistance, with thread locker already applied, and made from strong steel for long service life
• Trustworthy quality – backed by a team of product experts in the United States and more than a century of automotive experience

Vehicles with automatic transmissions have a flex plate. The flex plates connects the engine and transmission. Most flex plates are made of a thick piece of sheet metal with bolt holes for the torque converter and teeth for the starter. The job of a flex plate is to allow for expansion of the torque converter as engine RPM increases. The constant expansion and contraction of a flex plate over time can result cracks and/or shearing of the flex plate. A damaged flex plate can create serious (expensive) damage. Broken flex plates can not be repaired, they must be replaced. ATP flex plates are made of high quality steel and contain the correct bolt hole spacing and ring gear teeth just like the original part to ensure long life and durability

Product Features:

• Balanced to factory specs
• Fit and function like the original parts
• Restores normal operation

AT FLEX PLATE

Over 30 years ago, Schaeffler engineers under the LuK product brand developed a revolutionary technology for damping torsional vibrations in the drivetrain : the dual mass flywheel (DMF). Unlike a conventional flywheel, the DMF consists of two masses which are mounted to rotate against each other. A damping system in the form of arc springs is integrated into the DMF. Thus, it absorbs the torsional vibrations of the engine almost completely.

Product Features:

• A LuK DMF absorbs engine vibrations and torque spikes, preventing damage to the gearbox.
• A LuK dual mass flywheel (DMF) leads to less Bending Stress on the engines crankshaft.
• A LuK dual mass flywheel (DMF) leads to less vibration going to the Clutch Pedal.
• A LuK dual mass flywheel (DMF) reliably dampens torsional vibrations in the powertrain and increases driver and passenger comfort.
• A LuK dual mass flywheel dampens torsional vibrations in the powertrain and ensures driving comfort in all speed ranges. Matched to the each vehicle, the DMF enables low-speed driving and ensures lower fuel consumption and emissions.
