GMC Sierra 3500 Flywheels

ATP Flywheel Shims install easily restoring machined manual transmission flywheels back to the proper height. On automatic transmissions the shim takes up excessive clearance caused by engine crankshaft endplay or by installing a rebuilt torque converter or rebuilt front pump.

The ring gear has teeth which engage with the starter motor allowing the engine to crank over and start. Repeated engagement with the starter results in worn or broken ring gear teeth. Once this is diagnosed, the ring gear must be replaced. ATP ring gears are designed to fit and function just like the original part to ensure durability and long life.

Vehicles with automatic transmissions have a flex plate. The flex plate 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.

LuK rigid flywheels, a smart alternative to resurfacing,�offer a smooth, flat surface crucial for proper clutch operation, are engineered and manufactured to OE specifications, and are dynamically balanced to eliminate vibration and increase clutch performance

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.
