Not enough clutches and insufficient clutch piston-to-plate apply surface area causes clutch plate failure, especially when apply pressures exceed OE specifications. The other problem is flexing and bowing of the backing plate (coning), which is a primary source of clutch failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSonnax high capacity 4-5-6 clutch apply piston kit 104960-10K features a modified OE clutch apply piston and piston dam that are used in conjunction with a specially-designed toothed apply plate closest to the piston. The Sonnax toothed apply plate increases surface area between the apply piston and first friction plate resulting in more even distribution of apply force to clutch plates and allows a friction plate to run against the apply plate. By eliminating the OE waved plate and adding one additional OE-thickness friction, 4-5-6 clutch capacity is increased by 17%, resulting in a 4-5-6 clutch pack that can handle modified engines with increased power output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid backing plate design outperforms OE and aftermarket plates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToothed apply plate eliminates waved plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse with stock clutches and one additional OE-style friction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"part-accordion cb spaced-vertical\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"notes\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eNote\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOEM frictions are about .063\" thick, and OEM steels are about .086\" thick.
