Clutch

Looking to replace stock clutch on 5t 2.0 G320RC, manual is calling for 54.99. Is there a cheaper way out?

I'd go with a fs clutch, lasts longer, and cheaper

Yea I just looked at that one, I’m thinking that’s the stock one, the part # in the manual calls for some expensive stuff I thinking cause it bears the losi name. Thanks mark35

Engine is a zenoah, most likely zenoah clutch, losi probably rebranded it and just charge more cuz it says "losi" on it ?

+1 they are good??

Shouldn't be a break in period that I know of. Or at least I always gave them what for right away.

I use an FS clutch on my ESP 30.5. You'll want a vented clutch housing as it generates allot of heat. I read there's a break in period which simply improves efficiency but it's a case of just running it like normal and it gets a little better over time. I'm happy with it.

 

[Z.hb71]

Ddm says just run it normally, initially it will seam like it's slipping a bit but after a little bit it will start to bite.

I just want to put this out the fs clutch seems great it wore out my stock clutch bell upgraded to a bartlone clutch bell installed and re checked the clutch bell about 6 or 7 runs maybe more and I discovered it was wearing the bortlone clutch bell I could feel a grove on the inside of clutch bell so now I'm on turtle racing clutch bell haven't checked it since install maybe 4 runs it's an excellent clutch stronger than clutch bells if it goes through the turtle I might go back to stock or get a snapper or mip clutch

Good information, I might as well use the stock one it’s 13-17 buck and would be cheaper than replacing metal. Thanks losi125

13-17 buck

Cant go wrong with that?
