Exedy Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch Cushion Button Disc

1992–1999 Dodge Dakota 3.9L V6, 1994–2011 Jeep Wrangler 3.8L-4.0L V6/I6

Part #: 01950

Overview

The Exedy Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch Cushion Button Disc is engineered for high-performance applications, specifically designed to withstand the demands of modified engines producing increased power. This clutch disc features advanced Cerametallic friction material that offers superior durability and resistance to slipping and fading compared to standard stock discs. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking enhanced clutch response and longevity, this disc is particularly suited for circuit track use where quick, precise shifting is essential.

By significantly reducing the disc’s thickness and inertia, the Stage 2 Cerametallic disc improves shift effort and synchro durability, delivering a more engaging and reliable driving experience for Dodge Dakota and Jeep Wrangler owners with compatible V6 and inline-6 engines.

Key Features

Designed to meet the rigorous demands of high-power modified engines, the Exedy Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch Cushion Button Disc offers the following key features:

• High-performance Cerametallic friction material for enhanced heat resistance and durability
• Reduced thickness approximately half that of stock discs to lower rotational inertia
• Improved shift effort for quicker, smoother gear changes
• Enhanced synchro durability to extend transmission life under aggressive driving
• Specifically engineered for circuit track and high-stress driving environments
• Compatible with select Dodge Dakota and Jeep Wrangler models equipped with 3.8L-4.0L V6 and I6 engines
• Designed to resist slipping and fading under extreme conditions
• Precision manufacturing ensures consistent performance and reliability

Construction & Design

The clutch disc utilizes a Cerametallic friction material that combines ceramic and metallic compounds to provide superior heat tolerance and wear resistance. This advanced material composition allows the disc to maintain consistent friction levels even under high thermal loads, preventing the common issues of slipping and fading seen in conventional organic clutch discs.

The disc’s thin profile reduces rotational mass, which not only lowers inertia but also contributes to faster engine response and improved shift timing. This design choice benefits drivers who demand quick, precise gear changes without sacrificing durability. The robust construction is tailored to endure the stresses of modified engines and track conditions, ensuring long-lasting performance.

Installation & Fitment

The Exedy Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch Cushion Button Disc is a direct fit replacement for the following vehicles:

• 1992–1999 Dodge Dakota 3.9L V6
• 1994–1995 Jeep Wrangler 4.0L I6
• 1997–2006 Jeep Wrangler 4.0L I6
• 2007–2011 Jeep Wrangler 3.8L V6

Installation requires standard clutch replacement procedures. Due to the disc’s reduced thickness, it is recommended for circuit track use only and may require adjustments to clutch pedal free play or hydraulic system calibration to optimize engagement. Professional installation is advised to ensure proper fitment and performance.
